So the so the product of two consecutive numbers is 4160 or
x(x+1)=4160
distribute
x^2+x=4160
subtract 4160 from both sides
x^2+x-4160=0
find the factor (if you want to know how, just ask in the comments)
(x-64)(x+65)=0
so the answer is x could be 64 or -65
so the number that work are 64,65 and -65,-64
Answer:
x=2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
(2x+1)/2 = 2 1/3/4
Multiply 4 on both sides:
2x+1=2 1/3
Rewrite:
2x+1=7/3
Subtract 1 on both sides:
2x=4/3
Divide 2 on both sides:
x=2/3
Thus x=2/3
Hope this helps!
answer is C
He made an error in Step 3. He should have subtracted 2 from both sides.
Answer:
2
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the property of equality :)
So, the answer to this problem is
x = 9/2 or
x = 4.5.
