Answer:

26 and 27

Step-by-step explanation:

The first integer = x

Therefore the second integer = x + 1

according to the statement we obtain the equation

(x) + (x + 1) <55

x + x + 1 <55

2 * x + 1 <55

We subtract 1 from both sides, we get:

2x <54

divide both sides by 2 we get:

x <27

Therefore the first integer is 26, since it has to be better than 27.

the second integer = x + 1

= 26 + 1

= 27

If we add 26 + 27 = 53, which is less than 55 and the condition is met

If the area of a rectangle in terms of x is x2 + 15x + 26 / 6x2 and its width is x2 - 3x - 10 / 30x3 Find the length of the rect
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

The length of the rectangle is;

5x(x+13)/(x-5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Mathematically, we know that the area of a rectangle is the product of the length and width of the triangle

To find the length of the rectangle, we will have to divide the area by the width

we have this as;

(x^2 + 15x + 26)/6x^2 divided by (x^2-3x-10)/30x^3

thus, we have ;

(x^2 + 15x + 26)/6x^2 * 30x^3/(x^2-3x-10)

= (x^2+15x+ 26)/(x^2-3x-10) * 5x

But;

(x^2 + 15x + 26) = (x+ 2)(x+ 13)

(x^2-3x-10) = (x+2)(x-5)

Substituting the linear products in place of the trinomials, we have;

(x+2)(x+13)/(x+2)(x-5) * 5x

= 5x(x+13)/(x-5)
