Two consecutive integers have a sum of 185.find the integers
Strike441 [17]

Answer: 92 and 93

Step-by-step explanation:

The two consecutive integers will be written thus

= x + (x + 1)

The sum. x + (x+ 1).= 185'

x + x + 1 = 185

2x + 1 = 185

2x = 185 - 1

2x = 184

x = 184/2

= 92.

Therefore, the Integers are 92 and 93.

Factor quadratic trinomials
ad-work [718]
1. (x - 9) + (x + 5)
You split the x^2 into two xs
The one with an x (-4x) is what the two numbers should equal
-9 + 5 = 4
The one without an x (-45) is what the two numbers product should be
-9 times 5 = -45
*so remember the x is the sum of the two
*no x is the product of the two
Theres no quick trick to find the answer u just have to plug it in
*start with all the numbers that multiply for the no x (-45)
-3 and 15 or 3 and -15 is obviously not it as the sum does not equal -4
Those sums equal 12 or -12
I’ll do one more and ur on ur own comrade (ok and ill do number 4)
3. (x - 8) + (x - 9)
ok this time both the answers have a negative
*if it has only one negative in the problem there are going to be TWO negatives in the answer
-8 and -9 sum is -17
-8 and -9 sum is 72
If there was only one negative in the answer it would make the 72 negative and there is no -72 in the problem
So this one is
(x - 8) + (x - 9) (u dont have to have it like this u can put the (x - 9) in the front doesn’t matter which way it’s just the signs (- & +) that matter
OK now 4.
4. This one is very easy as all u need to do is find the two numbers for the product
(X - 6) (X + 6)
(Again it doesn’t matter which () is in front just the SIGNS INSIDE THE PARENTHESES ( + & - )

Solve -np-80&lt;60 for n. Show your work.<br><br> Solve 2a-5d=30 for d. Show your work.
xz_007 [3.2K]

-np-80 < 60\qquad\text{change the signs}\\\\np+80

------------------------------------------------------

2a-5d=30\qquad\text{subtract 2a from both sides}\\\\-5d=-2a+30\qquad\text{change the signs}\\\\5d=2a-30\qquad\text{divide both sides by 5}\\\\d=0.4a-6

(PLESE HELP) Factor the following expression. Simplify your answer.
mars1129 [50]

The factor of the expression 5p(p + 2)^{\frac{2}{3} }  + 4(p + 2)^{\frac{1}{3} } is(p + 2)^{\frac{2}{3} } (5p^{3}  + 10p^{2}  + 20p + 4)

To answer the question, we need to know what factorization is

<h3>What is factorization?</h3>

Factorization is the process of breaking down an expressing into a simpler form containing its factors.

Since

5p(p + 2)^{\frac{2}{3} }  + 4(p + 2)^{\frac{1}{3} }

Since (p + 2)^{\frac{1}{3} } is common, we factor it out. So, we have

(p + 2)^{\frac{2}{3} } (5p(p + 2)^{2}  + 4)

Expanding the bracket, we have

(p + 2)^{\frac{2}{3} } (5p(p^{2}  + 2p + 4) + 4) = (p + 2)^{\frac{2}{3} } (5p^{3}  + 10p^{2}  + 20p + 4)

So, the factor of the expression 5p(p + 2)^{\frac{2}{3} }  + 4(p + 2)^{\frac{1}{3} } is(p + 2)^{\frac{2}{3} } (5p^{3}  + 10p^{2}  + 20p + 4)

IVE BEEN ASKING FOR HOURS!!!!!! PLEASE HELP ME ANYONE!!!!! Juliet coaches softball and soccer. she coaches both sports for 15 ho
IrinaK [193]

Answer:

x + y = 15

y = 3x + 1.5

x + (3x + 1.5) = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Let :

Soft ball practice = x

Soccer practice = y

y = 3x + 1.5

Total practice time :

x + y = 15 - - - (1)

x + 3x + 1.5 = 15

4x + 1.5 = 15
