Answer:

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

I used the process of substitution to do this.

<em>1. put </em><em>both</em><em> equations into </em><em>slope-intercept form:</em>

y = 3x -  5

y = -2x + 5

<em>2. since they </em><em>both equal y</em><em>, they must </em><em>equal each other:</em>

3x - 5 =  -2x + 5

<em>3. </em><em>simplify:</em>

2 = x

You have to do 4 times the 8 which is 24. Then find the adding for the -6. 1*6 2*6 3*6 4*6 , 4*6 is 24 so your answer would be (x-4) (x+6)

Two consecutive integers have a product of 132.Find the integers
maksim [4K]
The difference between consecutive integers is 1.
Let x = smaller integer.
Then x + 1 is the next greater consecutive integer.

x(x + 1) = 132

x^2 + x - 132 = 0

(x + 12)(x - 11) = 0

x + 12 = 0   or   x + 11 = 0

x = -12   or   x = -11

Since x is the smaller of the two integers, the answers are:
-12, -11
11, 12
There are two pairs of such integers.
