Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The difference is a2 - a1 = 31 - 24 = 7
n = 500
a500 = a1 + (500 - 1) * 7
a500 = 24 + 499 * 7
a500 = 24 + 3493
a500 = 3517
√(4) is equal to 4 raised to the (1/2). 1/2 as an exponent is between 0 and 1 and it means to take the square root.
So, 4^(1/2) = 2 (or -2)
Two consecutive odd integers have a difference of 2. If you let the smaller one of them be x, the other one is x + 2.
Their sum is -36, so add x and x + 2, and set equal to -36. Then solve for x to find the smaller one. Finally, 2 more than x is the greater of the two integers.
x + x + 2 = -36
2x + 2 = -36
2x = -38
x = -19
The smaller one of the two integers is -19.
x + 2 = -19 + 2 = -17
The greater of the two integers is -17.
Answer: The integers are -19 and -17.
