Answer:
x = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Used a scientific calculator.
Answer: 5
List out the numbers from 1 to 50. Then go through that list and circle any numbers that have 9 in them. Those numbers are:
9, 19, 29, 39, 49
So there are 5 houses with 9s painted
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Distance traveled by seal to catch the fish = 15 below sea level
Sea lion wanted to catch a larger fish so sea lion dove 6 feet lesser than two time the distance that the seal traveled.
To find:
The expression to represent the position of the sea lion in the sea.
Solution:
If the distance traveled by seal is represented by 
then as per the question statement:
Twice of = 
6 lesser than twice of = - 6
Now, putting the value of = 15
Therefore, the expression to represent the sea lion's position w.r.to sea level.
Call the smaller of the two odds = n
Call the next number in the sequence = n + 2
n*(n +2) = 782 Remove the brackets.
n^2 + 2n = 782 Subract 782 from both sides.
n^2 + 2n - 782 = 0 We are going to have to factor this.
Discussion
This problem can't be done the way it is written. The product of an odd integer with another odd integer is and odd integer. There are no exceptions to this. So you need to give a number that has two factors very near it's square root for this question to work.
For example, you could use 783, (which factors) instead of 782 .
Solve
n^2 + 2n - 783 = 0
(n + 29)(x - 27) = 0
<u>Solution One</u>
n - 27 = 0
n = 27
The two odd consecutive integers are 27 and 29.
<u>Solution Two</u>
n + 29 = 0
n = - 29
The two solution integers are -29 and - 27 Notice that - 29 is smaller than - 27.
