Answer:
the two positive consecutive integers are 4 and 6.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the smaller integer be s; then s^2 = (s + 2) + 10.
Simplifying, s^2 - s - 2 - 10 = 0, or
s^2 - s - 12 = 0.
Solve this by factoring: (s - 4)(s + 3) = 0.
Then s = 4 and s = -3.
If the first even integer is 4, the next is 6. We omit s = -3 because it's not even.
The smaller integer is 4. Does this satisfy the equation s^2 = (s + 2) + 10?
4^2 = (4 + 2) + 10 True or False?
16 = 6 + 10 = 16.
True.
So the two positive consecutive integers are 4 and 6.
Answer:
angle 2 = 90° {corresponding angles}
angle 7 + angle 5 = 180° {linear pair}
or, angle 7 + 100° = 180° {angle 5 is corresponding to 100°}
so, angle 7 = 80°
The answer is: " x = 2 " .
