The first odd number = 15

The second is then = 17

<h3>The Consecutive numbers are:</h3>

Consecutive numbers are those that appear consecutively after one another in the range of smallest to largest. An illustration would be the sequence of numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and so on.

<h3>Where can I find consecutive numbers?</h3>

Let x be the first of the following numbers to represent it algebraically. Following that, the numbers x + 1, x + 2, and x + 3 would be arranged in order. You must make sure that your first selection is an even number if the question requires consecutive even numbers.

<h3>According to the given information:</h3>

We can employ the expression "2n," where n is any integer, to ensure that the result is even. By using the expression "2n + 1," we can ensure an odd number.

"2n + 3" will be the following odd number:

(2n + 1)(2n + 3) is the component of the odd integers, and it equals 255:

(2n + 1)(2n + 3) = 255

4n2 + 8n + 3 = 255

4n2 + 8n - 252 = 0

n2 + 2n - 63 = 0

(n + 9)(n -7) = 0

n = -9 and n = 7

We can disregard n = -9 because we are informed that the figures must be positive.

If n = 7,

The first odd number = 2(7) + 1 = 15

The second is then 17

X is less than or equal to 2 Write in interval notation.
Talja [164]
X is less than -2, so -2 is our largest value of the interval, so it goes on the right. Since there is no lower endpoint (it is ALL values less than -2), we put the negative infinity symbol on the left side. The curved end on -2 indicates an open interval
