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

Answer:

a.(10,23)

b.(7,30)

e.(20,20)

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

x=Width of garden

y=Length of garden

According to question

x\geq 5

y\geq 20

Perimeter of rectangle=2(x+y)

Where x=Width  of rectangle

y=Length of rectangle

Fencing used =2(x+y)

2(x+y)\leq 80

First we change inequality  into equality

x=5...(1)

y=20...(2)

2(x+y)=80

x+y=40...(3)

Substitute x=0 in equation (3)

y=40

Substitute y=0  in equation (3)

x=40

Substitute x=0 and y=0 in equation (3)

2(x+y)\leq 80

0\leq 80

It is true. Therefore, the  shaded region below the line.

0\geq 5

0\geq 20

These are false equation .Therefore, the shaded region above the line.

Substitute x=5 in equation (3)

5+y=40

y=40-5=35

Substitute y=20 in equation (3)

x+20=40

x=40-20=20

Intersection point of equation (1) and (3) is (5,35) and intersect point of equation (2) and (3) is (20,20).

Now,

a.(10,23)

Substitute in

2(x+y)\leq 80

2(10+23)\leq 80

66\geq 80

10>5 and 23>20

it satisfied all inequality.

Hence, it is a solution.

b.(7,30)

7>5

30>20

2(7+30)=74

it satisfied all inequality.

Hence, it is a solution.

c.(18,25)

18>5

25>20

2(18+25)=86>80

It does not satisfied third inequality

Hence, it is not a solution.

d.(8,35)

8>5

35>20

2(8+35)=86>80

It does not satisfied third inequality

Hence, it is not a solution.

e.(20,20)

2(20+20)=80

20>5

20=20

it satisfied all inequality.

Hence, it is a solution.
