The product of two consecutive integers is 56.find the the integers.

defon

Let, the integers = x,(x+1)

x*(x+1) = 56

x²+x = 56

x²+x-56 = 0

x²+8x-7x-56=0

x(x+8)-7(x+8)=0

x+8= 0 OR x-7=0

x = -8 OR x = 7

it would be -8 & -7 or 7 & 8

A company sells its printers to customers in order to make a profit of 25% calculate the price the company paid for a printer wh

ioda

The company paid $2000 for the printer

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the price of the printer for which the company bought it.

If x is the price of printer, then 25% of x will be the profit made by the company.

That is:

0.25x

According to the statement,

The cost and profit earned by company are equal to 2500

So,

$x+0.25x = 2500\\1.25x = 2500$

Dividing both sides by 1.25

$\frac{1.25x}{1.25} = \frac{2500}{1.25}\\x = 2000$

Hence,

The company paid $2000 for the printer

What is the greatest common factor of 10, 20, and 50?

Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

first you need to find the prime factors of the three numbers

ex:

prime factor of 18= $2*3*3$

prime of 24= $2*2*2*3$

there is one 2 and one 3 in common

greatest common multiple 2*3=6

so the greatest common multiple is ten because it is the only one that can divide between all three evenly.

$10=10/10=1\\20=20/10=2\\50=50/10=5$

so 10 is your answer

pychu [463]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

−4x−3(−44−23)=13

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

−4x+201=13

Step 2: Subtract 201 from both sides.

−4x+201−201=13−201

−4x=−188

Step 3: Divide both sides by -4.

−4x

−4

−188

x=47
