We solve the equation, ( a + a + 1 )^2 = 112 + a^2 + ( a + 1 )^2;
Then, ( 2a + 1 )^2 = 112 + a^2 + a^2 + 2a +1;
4a^2 + 4a + 1 = 113 + 2a^2 + 2a;
Finally, 2a^2 + 2a - 112 = 0;
a^2 + a - 56 = 0; 
We use <span>Quadratic Formula for this Quadratic Equation;
The solutions are a1 = 7 and a2 = -8;
But a is a natural number; so, a = 7;
The natural consecutive numbers are 7 and 8.</span>

Evaluate 2b^2-4a+4a^2 for a= 3 and b= -8
masha68 [24]
Given a = 3 and b = - 8 ,


= > 2b² - 4a + 4a²

= > 2( - 8 )² - 4( 3 ) + 4( 3 )²

= > 2( 64 ) - 4( 3 ) + 4( 9 )

= > 128 - 12 + 36

= > 116 + 36

= > 152

It takes ten identical pieces to form a circular track for a pair of toy racing cars. If the inside arc of each piece is 3.4 inc

 <span>Length of outer track = sum of length of 10 pieces = circumference of the outer circle 


if R is the Radius of outer circle then... 

Circumference of the outer track = 2pi*R 


Similarly the circumference of the inner track (with radius r) = 2pi*r 


length of each outer piece is 3.4 inch more than length of inner piece 

So total outer length is 10*3.4 =34 inches more than the inner length. 


=> Outer Circumference - Inner Circumference = 34 inches 

=> 2pi*R - 2pi*r = 34 

=> 2pi(R -r) = 34 

=> R-r = 34/2pi = 5.41 inches 

=> R-r = Width of the track = 5.41 inches</span>
