Lilit [14]3 years ago

Answer:

7

Step-by-step explanation:

first and foremost the two consecutive numbers will be x and x + 1, which will equal to 2x + 1.

2x + 1 > 15

2x + 1 = 15

Collect like terms

2x = 15 - 1

2x = 14

Divide both sides by 2

x = 7

The answer is 2k^2 - 7k - 4 because 2k x k is 2k^2 and 2k x (-4) is -8k and 1 x k is k and 1 x (-4) is -4. So then you would get 2k^2 - 8k + k - 4 which simplifies to 2k^2 - 7k - 4 which is your answer.
