Answer:
D. (x-2)(x-4)
Step-by-step explanation:
The graph cross the x-axis in points with x-coordinates of 2 and 4
then 2 and 4 are roots of x² - 6x + 8.
The small number is 2.
The large number is 3.
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Let the two consecutive numbers be x and x+1.
- x be the small integer.
- x+1 be the large integer.
The sum of these two consecutive integers = small integer + large integer
The sum of these two consecutive integers is x+x+1 = (2x+1)
It is given that,
- The sum of two consecutive integers is one less than three times the smaller integer.
- This means that, (2x+1) is one less than three times the smaller integer.
- Here, the small integer is represented as x.
<u>Therefore, it can determined that :</u>
(2x+1) = 3x-1
Keeping x term on one side and constants on other side,
3x-2x = 1+1
x = 2
Therefore, the small number is 2 and the large number is x+1 = 3.
..........The answer is D
First, make 6 into an improper fraction.
6/1
Now multiply the numerators.
6x3=18
Now, the same with the denominators.
1x5=5
18/5
Now make it into a mixed number.
5x3=15
3 and...
18-15=3
3 and 3/5!!
Hope this helped!
