Answer:

Apparent Increase in Wave Frequency

As the ambulance approaches you, the distance between the source of the waves and the observer decreases. Consequently, the siren sounds more shrill as the pitch of the wailing siren 'sounds' higher than its original value, as sound waves reach you 'more frequently'.

Find two consecutive integers such that the sum of their squares added to the lesser number equals 21

Sati [7]

Answer:

-4 and -3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the numbers be x and x+1.

From the given information:

x^2 + (x + 1)^2 + x = 21

x^2 + x^2 + 2x + 1 + x - 21 = 0

2x^2 + 3x - 20 = 0

(2x - 5 )(x + 4 ) = 0

x = 5/2 or -4 We ignore 5/2 as its not an interger

So the required integers are -4 and -3.
