Answer:
71, 72, 73, 74 . for details, check below
Step-by-step explanation:
a) Let's assume that among the four consecutive numbers, the first one is x,
so, the four consecutive numbers should be:
- x
- x+1
- x+2
- x+3.
According to the question,
(x) + (x + 1) + (x + 2) + (x + 3) = 290
<h2>
b)</h2>
(x) + (x + 1) + (x + 2) + (x + 3) = 290
4x + 6 = 290
4x = 284
x = 284÷ 4
x = 71.
So, the numbers are,
71, 72, 73, 74
Answer:
Due to there being no negatives in this equation, you can pretty much just eliminate the first 3 answers.
However in working out, here is what I did.
x^2 + x - 30 = 12 (+30)
= x^2 + x = 42
Then you can conclude that the answer is D, due to 6 x 6 = 36, plus 7 equaling 42.
C is the answer I got it right
