The sum of two consecutive odd integers is 236 what is the smaller integer

1 answer:

3 0

The correct answer is 117

x + y = 236
y = x + 2
x + x + 2 = 236
2x = 236 - 2
2x = 234
x = 234/2
x = 117

y = 117 + 2
y =119

Both are odd integers and 117 is smaller.

What is the solution of x-1/1-x < 0?

kykrilka [37]

Option C is correct option.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the solution of $\frac{x-1}{1-x}$

The given inequality becomes undefined when x = 1 because the denomiator is: 1-x and if x = 1 then it becomes 1-1 = 0 and anything divided by zero is undefined.

So, all values other than 1 are included in the solution of the given inequality.

So, solution is: x<1 or x>1 but x≠1

So, Option C is correct because all numbers are included in number line except 1. An unfilled circle on 1 shows that it is not included in the solution. Rest of numbers are included.

Option C is correct option.
