N; n+1; n+2 - 3 consecutive numbers
n(n + 1) = (n + 2)² - 19 |use a(b + c) = ab + ac and (a + b)² = a² + 2ab + b²
n² + n = n² + 4n + 4 - 19 |subtract n² from both sides
n = 4n - 15 |subtract 4n from both sides
-3n = -15 |divide both sides by (-3)
n = 5
n + 1 = 5 + 1 = 6
n + 2 = 5 + 2 = 7
Answer: 5; 6; 7.
IF the pentagon has 5 equal sides then each side is
280 / 5 which equals 56 cm
You need to solve for x or y in one equation and and substitute it into the other equation in place of the variable that corresponds to it.
Answer:7 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
If the painters split the work they have to do amognst each other {divide each by two}. Then add what you dived by two together that gives you 7 hours
