Let the four consecutive numbers be x,x+1,x+2,x+3.

Now the product of second and third number=(x+1)(x+2)=x²+3x+2=k

Product of first and fourth number=x(x+3)=x²+3x=k-2

A.T.Q

product of second and third number= product of first and fourth number+2

Hence proved

Solve:<br> -3/4+p=1/2<br> Thank you so much!
shepuryov [24]

-3 / 4 + p = 1/2

LCD 4 and 2 = 4

Multiply by LCD = 4

p. (4)- 3/4 .( 4 ) = 1/2.(4)

4 p - 3 = 2

Add 3 to both sides:

4 p - 3 + 3 = 2 + 3

4 p = 5

Divide both sides by 4 :

4p / 4 =  5 /4

p = 5/4

Consider the function given by the graph. What are these values?
Natalija [7]
As you see in the picture, there are two lines that could maybe represent two linear functions. However, this is not true because of the solid point and the hollow point. This is an inequality equation that has points of discontinuity.

Points of discontinuity are breaks in the graph that are a result of an undefined point when the f(x) is substituted with a point of x that is not part of the solution. So, technically, the graph is made from one rational expression.

So, when it says f(-2), this is the y-value at x=-2. That means f(-2)=2, f(0)=3 and f(4)=-1. Specifically, there are two points at x=0, but we take the solid point only.

What is the measure of an anglethat is supplementary to an angle of 37°? A. 127° B. 53° C. 143° D. 323°​
KengaRu [80]

<u>Answer:</u>

143°

option c is correct!

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given:

Two angles are supplementary:

One angle = 37°

We know if two angles are supplementary their sum is equal to 180°.

Let another angle be x°

= > 37° + x° = 180

= > x° = 143°

Therefore another angle is 143°.
