Answer:

The integers are, 30 and 31

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the statement: Two consecutive integers have a sum of 61 .

Let x and x+ 1 are the two consecutive integers.

then;

as per the given condition we have;

x +(x+1) = 61

Combine like terms;

2x+1 = 61

Subtract 1 from both sides ;

2x + 1-1 = 61 -1

Simplify:

2x = 60

Divide both sides by 2 we get;

x = 30

and

value of x+1 = 30+1 = 31

Therefore, the integers are, 30 and 31.

Answer:

0, 1, 2

Step-by-step explanation:

So, since there are three consecutive integers, you have the equations

x, x+1, x+2 where x is the smallest number.

The greatest of the three integers= x+2

Finish setting up your equation;

2(x+x+1)=x+2

Combine like terms;

2(2x+1)=x+2

Distribute;

4x+2=x+2

3x=0

x=0

x+1=1

x+2=2

Hope this helps:) Have a good day!

Answer:

Only area of PQR can be calculated.

Step-by-step explanation:

In PQR, we have both the base (24 cm) and the height (15cm) which is perpendicular to the base. Therefore using these two measurements, we can take

\frac{1}{2}  \times 24 \times 15

This is equal to 180 cm².
