In this pattern, we're subtracting 3, so after -4, we'd get -7, -10 and -13, which would be option A
Answer:
5 1/2 is also known as 11/2 and 3 3/4 is also know as 15/4. Now times 11/2 x 15/4. 165/8 is the answer i think
Step-by-step explanation:
you make everything an improper fraction then times it
To find the decimal, all you need to do is take the number on top and divide it by the one in the bottom. 129/3930=0.03
Answer: 7 and 8
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Let x represent the first number, then x + 1 is the other number.
(x)² + (x + 1)² = 113
x² + x² + 2x + 1 = 113 <em>expanded (x + 1)²</em>
2x² + 2x + 1 = 113 <em>added like terms</em>
2x² + 2x - 112 = 0 <em>subtracted 113 from both sides</em>
x² + x - 56 = 0 <em> divided both sides by 2</em>
(x + 8) (x - 7) = 0 <em>factored polynomial</em>
x + 8 = 0 x - 7 = 0 <em>applied zero product property</em>
x = -8 x = 7 <em> solved for x</em>
↓
not valid since the restriction is that x > 0 <em>(a positive number)</em>
So, x = 7 and x + 1 = (7) + 1 = 8
