Remember that the quadratic formula is:
.
stands for the coefficient of the first term, the one associated with the
,
stands for the coefficient of the second term, the one associated with
, and
stands for the value of the constant.
In
, our a-value is 1, our b-value is also 1, and our c-value is also 1.
Thus, when we plug in our values into our formula, we get the answer:

Simplifying this answer using
, we get our final answer of:

Answer:
lesser odd integer =11
Greater odd integer=13
Step-by-step explanation:
let the consecutive odd integers be x,x+2
and x<x+2
3(x+2)=x+28
3x+6=x+28
3x-x=28-6
2x=22
x=11
x+2=11+3=13
The answer is <19,4> because when subtracting a negative it becomes a postitive
