Consecutive even integers = x, x + 2
(x - 3)(x + 2) = 24 Since width x, was decreased by 3.
If we test x = 6, (6 - 3)(6 + 2) = 3*(8) = 24
So to <span>(x - 3)(x + 2) = 24, x = 6 satisfies it.
The original rectangle = </span><span>x, x + 2 = 6, 6 + 2 = 6, 8
</span><span>
Original area = 6*8 = <span>48 square inches</span></span>
Answer:
x = 8, y = 8√2
Step-by-step explanation:
x = 8
y = 8(√2) = 8√2
Answer:
17 : 12
Step-by-step explanation:
A ratio is another way of expressing a fractional relationship between two or more values. In this case, the problem is asking one to represent the relationship between carrots to potatoes. It gives the number of carrots to the number of potatoes, so all one has to do is substitute in the number.
Answer:
120(I'm not definitely sure)
Step-by-step explanation:
IQR= Q3- Q1= 170 - 50 = 120
Hey there!

We can first factor out the 4 (bring it outside the parenthesis)

Now have a closer look between the parenthesis, because this expression can be factored as well. We're looking for two different numbers with a product of -6 and a sum of 5. Hence, we find the numbers 6 and -1
