Consecutive odd integers are 2 apart
they are x and x+2
the product (x times (x+2)) is 1 less than 4 times their sum
x(x+2)=-1+4(x+x+2)

what numbers multliply to get -7 and add to get -6?
-7 and 1
(x-7)(x+1)=0
set equal to 0
x-7=0
x=7
x+1=0
x=-1
so the x can be 7 or -1
the other number (x+2) can be 7 or 1

7(9)=-1+4(7+9)
63=-1+4(16)
63=-1+64
63=63
true
-1 and 1
-1(1)=-1+4(-1+1)
-1=-1+4(0)
-1=-1+0
-1=-1
true
the 2 integers can be 7 and 9 or -1 and 1 (both pairs of numbers work)

Answer:
5.848 in
Step-by-step explanation:
Divide the piece of cardboard into nine equal squares of side z.
The centre square is the base of the cube.
When you cut out the corner squares and fold up the sides, you will have a cube with edge length z.
The cube must have a volume of 200 in³.
V = z³
200 = z³
z = 2 × 2.924
z = 5.848 in
The edge length of the cube is 5.848 in.
