The crucial part of the wording of the problem tells us that the two integers are consecutive. So, let's call the first term x. Then the other term must be x + 1 since it comes right after it and is an integer. Now we can solve:
x(x + 1) = x + (x + 1) + 19
x^2 + x = 2x + 20
x^2 - x - 20 = 0
Now we factor:
(x - 5)(x + 4) = 0
This means x either equals 5 or x = -4 to satisfy the above equation. We know that x is positive from the question itself, so x must be 5. The number consecutively after it then must be 6.
Answer:
A=11.1%
B=33.33%
Step-by-step explanation:
A.First Die Second die
6 5
5 6

4 6
4/36=1/9=.11=11.1 %
12/36=0.3333=33.333 percent
Hi!
<h3>We need to isolate x on one sides, and whatever we do to the equation we have to do on both sides. </h3><h3>Subtract 5 from both sides. </h3>
4x + 5 - 5 = 12 - 5 - 7x
4x = 7 - 7x
<h3>Add 7x to both sides. </h3>
4x + 7x = 7 - 7x + 7x
11x = 7
<h3>Divide by 11 on both sides</h3>
11x/11 = 7/11
<u>x = 7/11</u>
<h2>The answer is x = 7/11</h2>
Hope this helps! :)

Answer:
$299.60
Step-by-step explanation:
The relationship between earnings and sales is ...
