Answer: 92 and 93

Step-by-step explanation:

The two consecutive integers will be written thus

= x + (x + 1)

The sum. x + (x+ 1).= 185'

x + x + 1 = 185

2x + 1 = 185

2x = 185 - 1

2x = 184

x = 184/2

= 92.

Therefore, the Integers are 92 and 93.

Write the equation of the line that passes through the points (-1, 10) and (5, 2)

sdas [7]

Answer:

$y=-\frac{4}{3}x +\frac{26}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

1) if the point A has coordinates (-1;10) and the point B - (5;2), then it is possible to write common view of the required equation of the line:

$\frac{x-X_A}{X_B-X_A} =\frac{y-Y_A}{Y_B-Y_A};$

2) if to substitute the coordinates of A&B into the common equation, then:

$\frac{x+1}{5+1} =\frac{y-10}{2-10}; \ => \frac{x+1}{6}=\frac{y-10}{-8};$

3) finally, in slope-intersection form:

3y= -4x+26; ⇔ y= -4/3 x +26/3.

P.S. the suggested way of the solution is not the only one.

A lent B rs 32500 to purchase a car at 12.5% p.A

LiRa [457]

Answer:

6,483.75

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculation to find the interest paid by B after 3/2 year

First step is to calculate the Compound interest amountUsing this formula

Interest paid= P(1 + r/100)^Time

Where,

P represent principal=32,500

r represent Rate of interest = 12.5%/2 = 6.25%

T represent Time=3/2 years

Let plug in the formula

Compound interest amount= 32,500(1 + 6.25/100)^2*3/2

Compound interest amount= 32,500([1+.0625)^3

Compound interest amount= 32,500(1.0625)^3

Compound interest amount= 32,500 *1.1995

Compound interest amount= 38,983.75

Now let calculate the Interest paid by B

Interest paid by B = 38,983.75 - 32,500

Interest paid by B = 6,483.75

Therefore the interest paid by B after 3/2 year will be 6,483.75
