Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:




Let x be the first number
X + 1 be the second number
So
(x+1)^2 – x^2 = 2017
X^2 + 2x +1 – x^2 = 2017
2x + 1 = 2017
2x = 2017 – 1
2x = 2016
X = 1008
X + 1 = 1009
Sum = 1008 + 1009 = 2017
It is a rational number in the form of a decimal fraction.
The maturity value is the principal value together with interest due.
.. mv = P +Prt
.. = 5350*(1 +0.085*120/360) . . . . . . year is 360 days for "ordinary interest"
.. ≈ 5501.58
The maturity value is $5501.58.
True, hope this helps you.
