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
Answer:
9/10
Step-by-step explanation: the magic mushroom said so
Answer:
8by + 2ax - 4bx - 4ay
Step-by-step explanation:
I assume you mean expand so:
(a - 2b)(3x - 5y) + (2b - a)(x - y)
3ax - 5ay - 6bx + 10by + 2bx - 2by - ax + ay
Now collect like terms:
2ax - 4ay - 4bx + 8by
This is your answer but in a better order:
8by + 2ax - 4bx - 4ay
