Answer:
The numbers are 6 and 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = integer
The second is x-2
Product of x*(x-2) is 24
x(x-2) = 24
Distribute
x^2 -2x =24
Subtract 24 from each side
x^2 -2x -24 =24-24
x^2 -2x-24 =0
Factor
What two number multiply together to give 24 and add to -2
-6*4= -24
-6+4 = -2
(x-6) (x+4) =0
Using the zero product property
x-6 =0 x+4 = 0
x=6 x=-4
The question states the number is positive
x=6
The second number is x-2 = 4
The numbers are 6 and 4
Answer:
P= 2
T=6
3) 252$
Step-by-step explanation:
1) set up your equation 3/8p=6/8 then divide 3/8 from both sides (remember when you divide fractions you would multiply by the reciprocal so 3/8 x 8/6. Also make sure you simplify)
2) Do the same here. 38/7 divided by 19/21
3) Turn the fraction into an improper fraction then multiply 126 by that amount (3/6)
Answer: That would be the third option
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
1.8
Step-by-step explanation:
- Calculate the absolute values - the -1 turns into 1. Than the 0.8 stays the same.
- After that you just add them together
