First, we can represent the numbers as n and n + 1 = 25

<h2>n + n + 1 = 25</h2><h2 /><h2>Next, we can combine like terms.</h2><h2 /><h2>2n + 1 = 25</h2><h2 /><h2>Subtract 2 from both sides.</h2><h2 /><h2>2n = 24</h2><h2 /><h2>2n ÷ 2 = n</h2><h2>24 ÷ 2 = 12</h2><h2 /><h2>If we know that 12 is n, n + 1 would be equal to 12 + 1 so the largest consecutive number is 13.</h2>

Assume the larger number is x
another number is x-1
their sum would be x+(x-1) which equals 25
x+(x-1)=25
2x=26
x=13
ans:13

Point B has coordinates ​(2​,1​). The​ x-coordinate of point A is negative 1. The distance between point A and point B is 5 unit
Gwar [14]

Answer:

A = (-1,5) or  (-1,-3)

Step-by-step explanation:

A = (-1,y)    B = (2,1)

 

(Distance from A to B) = √[(-1-2)² + (y-1)²] = 5

                                    =√[9 + y² - 2y + 1] = 5

Squaring on both sides

                                     =  y² - 2y + 10 = 25

                                       =y² - 2y -15 = 0

                                      = (y-5)(y+3) = 0

                                         y = 5 or -3

Therefore, A = (-1,5) or  (-1,-3)

Johnson and Jocatol Ltd. owned a business office with floor measuring 15 m by 8 m which was to be carpeted. The cost of carpetin
SVEN [57.7K]

Cost of painting is GHe 109,320

<u>Given:</u>

Floor measure = 15 m by 8 m

Cost of carpeting = GHe 890 per square meter

Total cost of painting and carpeting = GHe 216,120

<u>Find:</u>

Cost of painting

<u>Computation:</u>

Area of floor = 15 × 8

Area of floor = 120 square meter

Cost of carpeting = 120 × 890

Cost of carpeting = GHe 106,800

Cost of painting = Total cost of painting and carpeting - Cost of carpeting

Cost of painting = 216,120 - 106,800

Cost of painting = GHe 109,320
