Let
x---------> first positive integer
x+1------> second positive integer
x+2-----> third positive integer
we know that
(x+1)*(x+2)=72-------> x² +2x+x+2=72 -------> x² +3x-70=0
using a graph tool-------> <span>I solve the quadratic equation
</span>see the attached figure
the roots are
x1=-10
x2=7
the answer is
first positive integer is x=7
second positive integer is x+1=8
third positive integer is x+2=9
Is this a rise over run question
Answer:
Multiplication Symbols:
<u>1.</u><u> Times</u> ×
<u>2.</u><u> Dot</u> ⋅
<u>3.</u><u> Parentheses</u> ()
<u>4.</u><u> Variables next to each other</u> <em>ab</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
The symbols can be used like this...
Times: <em>a</em> × <em>b</em> = <em>c</em>
Dot: <em>a</em> ⋅ <em>b</em> = <em>c</em>
Parentheses:<em> </em>(<em>a</em>)(<em>b</em>) = <em>c</em>
Variables next to each other: <em>ab </em>= <em>c</em>
Given :
Mo spends £15 on ingredients to make 40 cookies.
He sells all 40 cookies for 50p each.
To Find :
The Mo's percentage profit.
Solution :
We know, 1 £ = 66.09 p.
So, total income is :
T = 40 × 50 p
T = 2000 p
T = £2000/66.09
T = £30.26
So, total profit is, P = £( 30.26 - 15 ) = £15.26 .
Hence, this is the required solution.
