Answer:

There are 199 pairs of consecutive natural numbers whose product is less than 40000.

Step-by-step explanation:

We notice that such statement can be translated into this inequation:

n \cdot (n+1) < 40000

Now we solve this inequation to the highest value of n that satisfy the inequation:

n^{2}+n < 40000

n^{2}+n -40000

The Quadratic Formula shows that roots are:

n_{1,2} = \frac{-1\pm\sqrt{1^{2}-4\cdot (1)\cdot (-40000)}}{2\cdot (1)}

n_{1,2} = -\frac{1}{2}\pm \frac{1}{2} \cdot \sqrt{160001}

n_{1} = -\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{2}\cdot \sqrt{160001}

n_{1} \approx 199.501

n_{2} = -\frac{1}{2}-\frac{1}{2}\cdot \sqrt{160001}

n_{2} \approx -200.501

Only the first root is valid source to determine the highest possible value of n, which is n_{max} = 199. Each natural number represents an element itself and each pair represents an element as a function of the lowest consecutive natural number. Hence, there are 199 pairs of consecutive natural numbers whose product is less than 40000.

Naddik [55]

Answer:

Company A is 1.99 times B.

Step-by-step explanation:

Company A charges:

A=70.50+0.50=\$71/mile  

Company B charges:

B=35.50+0.09=\$35.59/mile

We just need to divide A by B:

x=A/B=1.99

Therefore, company A is 1.99 times B.

I hope it helps you!
