By doubles as outcome means the first and second outcome must be same.
The first option has outcome as 1. (1-1) (2-2) (3-3) (4-4) (5-5) (6-6).
In this we have first and second outcome as same, so we can say it satisfies our requirement and option first is the correct choice.
We solve the equation, ( a + a + 1 )^2 = 112 + a^2 + ( a + 1 )^2;
Then, ( 2a + 1 )^2 = 112 + a^2 + a^2 + 2a +1;
4a^2 + 4a + 1 = 113 + 2a^2 + 2a;
Finally, 2a^2 + 2a - 112 = 0;
a^2 + a - 56 = 0;
We use <span>Quadratic Formula for this Quadratic Equation;
The solutions are a1 = 7 and a2 = -8;
But a is a natural number; so, a = 7;
The natural consecutive numbers are 7 and 8.</span>
3.4 meters because you can you use it sorry if misunderstood hope it helped.
The simplest form of this sum is 670.
