B 1 since you would round 1.9 to 2 and 0.7 to 1
The consecutive positive integers would be: x and (x+1),
We would have to solve the following equation to find these numbers:
x(x+1)-[x+(x+1)]=29
x²+x-2x-1=29
x²-x-30=0
x=[1⁺₋√(1+120)]/2
x=(1⁺₋11)/2
We have two possible solutions:
x₁=(1-11)/2=-5 then: (x+1)=-5+1=-4 This is not the solution.
x₂=(1+11)/2=6 then: (x+1)=6+1=7 This solution is right.
Answer: the numbers would be 6 and 7.
Let's say Bailey takes "b" days to paint it.
and Andrew takes "a" days to paint the same house.
now, Andrew is 6 times faster than Bailey, therefore, if Andrew takes "a" days to do it, Bailey takes then "6a" days, or b = 6a.
now, the year they worked together, they finished it in 7 days.
so, after 1 day then, they have only done 1/7 of the whole work.
and Andrew for one day, has done 1/a of the house, whilst Bailey has done 1/b of the house or 1/(6a).
Answer:
A. 2,484
Step-by-step explanation:
27×30 2/3× 9= 7,452
7,452÷3= 2,484
