2 consecutive integers...x and x + 1

x + x + 1 < = 3
2x + 1 < = 3
2x < = 3 - 1
2x < = 2
x < = 1

x + 1 = 1 + 1 = 2.......the greatest possible value for the greatest integer is 2

Find the area of the composite figure
nordsb [41]

Answer:

162 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Split this shape into two rectangles:

The big rectangle has a base of 16 and a height of 7 (subtract 12-5=7 for height) Multiply base*height to get area of big rectangle:

16*7 = 112 in

The small rectangle has a base of 10 and a height of 5. Mulitply base*height to get area of small rectangle:

10*5 = 50 in

Add both areas together:

112+50= 162 inches

How do i solve x squared = 4x -5
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

x = 2 ±i

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 = 4x-5

Subtract 4x from each side

x^2 - 4x = 4x-5 -4x

x^2 - 4x= -5

Complete the square

Take the coefficient of the x term, divide by 2 and square it

-4/2 =2   2^2 =4

Add 4 to each side

x^2 -4x+4 = -5 +4

The left side is (x-coefficient of the x term/2)^2

(x-2)^2 = -1

Take the square root of each side

sqrt((x-2)^2) = sqrt(-1)

x-2 = ±i

Add 2 to each side

x-2+2 = 2 ±i

x = 2 ±i

2.1 , - 6/10 , -9/4 , -0.75 , 5/3 , least to greatest
WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

-9/4, -0.75, -6/10, 5/3, 2.1

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a lot easier to figure out if you simplify the fractions and then change them to decimals

So -9/4 = -2 1/4 or -2.25

-0.75

-6/10 = -0.60

5/3 = 1 2/3 or 1.67

2.1

When you are ordering negatives, the biggest negative is the least. That is why -9/4 (-2.25) is the least number out of the five given.

The next one would be -0.75, because it is the second biggest negative fraction.

The next one is -0.60 because that is the 3rd biggest negative fraction (or the smallest because this is the last negative)

Now, because we're in the positives we start with 1.67, because it is smaller than the other number.

2.1 is our last number, so it is the greatest!

I hope this helped :)
