Two consecutive negative integers are n and n+1.  We are told that the product of these two integers is 600 so:

n(n+1)=600

n^2+n=600

n^2+n-600=0

n^2+25n-24n-600=0

n(n+25)-24(n+25)=0

(n-24)(n+25)=0, since we are told that n is negative...

n=-25

(...-25(-24)=600 so -25 is the value of the lesser integer)

Prime factors of 600 are 2*2*2*3*5*5

2*2*2*3 = 24
and 5*5 = 25

so the 2 negative integers are -24 and -25

and lesser integer is -25.

Software - Infinite Algebra 2 Absolute Value Inequalities Solve each inequality and graph its solution. Name Sarmant Date 3/8/20
gulaghasi [49]
|6+9x|\le24

this is the correct way to solve these types of exercises

then we will try to do the same where a is (6+9x) and b is 24

|6+9x|\le24\longrightarrow-24\le6+9x\le24

and solve the right inequality for x

-24\le6+9x\le24

subtract 6 for all expression

\begin{gathered} -24-6\le6-6+9x\le24-6 \\ -30\le9x\le18 \end{gathered}

now divide on 9

\begin{gathered} -\frac{30}{9}\le\frac{9x}{9}\le\frac{18}{9} \\  \\ -\frac{10}{3}\le x\le2 \end{gathered}

ok, this means that the x values ​​will be from -10/3 to 2 including these

Graph

solution is the red zone
