Step-by-step explanation:

4 consecutive odd integers means we start with x, then have x+2, x+4 and then x+6.

and then we have

-24 = x + x+2 + x+4 + x+6 = 4x + 12

4x = -36

x = -9

x+2 = -7

x+4 = -5

x+6 = -3

so, in sequence from small to large these 4 numbers are

-9, -7, -5, -3

Answer: $24^{\circ}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

River is flowing from south to North with a velocity of $u=1\ m/s$

Motor boat traverses the river from east to west at a speed of $v=2.5\ m/s$

South component of boat velocity must compensate the river velocity in order to travel in west direction.

$\therefore v\sin \theta=u\\\\\Rightarrow 2.5\sin \theta=1\\\\\Rightarrow \sin \theta=\dfrac{2}{5}\\\\\Rightarrow \theta=23.57^{\circ}\approx 24^{\circ} \text{south of west}$
