2 consecutive odd positive integers....x and x + 2

x^2 + (x + 2)^2 = 130
x^2 + (x + 2)(x + 2) = 130
x^2 + x^2 + 4x + 4 = 130
2x^2 + 4x + 4 = 130
2x^2 + 4x + 4 - 130 = 0
2x^2 + 4x - 126 = 0
2(x^2 + 2x - 63) = 0
2(x - 7)(x + 9) = 0

x - 7 = 0
x = 7

x + 9 = 0
x = -9 (cant be this one because it is negative

so x = 7...and x + 2 = 7 + 2 = 9......ur 2 numbers are 7 and 9

Why is 3 to the power 0 = 1
Nostrana [21]
When we raise something to a power, it really justs means we are multiplying it by itself. 3^2 (3 to the power of 2) means that we are mutliplying 3 by itself: 3•3 = 9 or 3^2 = 9 (there are two 3's) 

However, when we rasie something to the 0 power, it equals 1. That is because we are multiplying it by itself 0 times. We are not multiplying it by zero, we are effectively doing nothing at all. 3^0 = 1

Reptile [31]
C.

If each 1/2 is cut in 4 than you would have to multiply that by 2 because it's only half. Then since you're finding what fraction is it you would put a 1 on top and say 1/8.
