Consecutive odd numbres are 2 apart
they numbers are x and x+2
square of first plus 3 times 2nd is 24
first is x
2nd is x+2
x²+3(x+2)=24
easy
x²+3x+6=24
minus 24 both sides
x²+3x-18=0
factor
(x+6)(x-3)=0
set to ezr
x+6=0
x=-6
false, this is even
x-3=0
x=3
x+2=5
the numbers are 3 and 5
9+15=24, yah
3 and 5 are numbers
Answer: 2m+m+m is really the same thing as saying m+m+m+m, or 4m. Use whatever you like as the expression :)
You were really close :D
The mistake you made is that 44 - 36 is 8, not 6.
Using 8 instead, the answer is:
The answer is. D. (-6,7)
To solve the exercise you should be aware that you should primarily locate the location of park on the abscissa-x_axis ( West - East. ) followed by locating the latter on the ordinate- Y_axis (South - North). So first u start by drawing a line perpendicular ( makes a 90 degrees ) to the X_axis to find that it cuts it in a point of coordinates (-6,0) and then do the same on the Y_axis to find that it cuts it in a point of coordinates (0,7). Thus you conclude that the park is found on (-6,7) count 6 boxes to the left-west and then 7 upwards- north.
