Find two positive consecutive odd integers such that square of the smaller integer is 10 more than the larger integer

Mathematics

Let 2n+1 be the smaller integer. The larger integer is then 2n+3, and we have

(2n+1)^2=10+(2n+3)\implies4n^2+4n+1=2n+13

\implies4n^2+2n-12=0

\implies2n^2+n-6=0

\implies(2n-3)(n+2)=0

\implies 2n-3=0\text{ or }n+2=0

\implies n=\dfrac32\text{ or }n=-2

We omit n=-2, since 2(-2)+1=-3 is negative.

Then for n=\dfrac32 we find 2\left(\dfrac32\right)+1=4, but this is not odd.

There are no consecutive odd integers that satisfy the given condition!

Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Rectangular prism

V = lwh       l = 8   W = 3    h = 9

  = 8(3)(9)

  = 216

Cube

V = s^{3}   where s = length of side

216 = s^{3}

s = \sqrt[3]{216}  = 6
