Answer:
The pairs are (13,15) and (-15,-13).
Step-by-step explanation:
If n is an odd integer, the very next odd integer will be n+2.
n+1 is even (so we aren't using this number)
The sum of the squares of (n) and (n+2) is 394.
This means
(n)^2+(n+2)^2=394
n^2+(n+2)(n+2)=394
n^2+n^2+4n+4=394 since (a+b)(a+b)=a^2+2ab+b^2
Combine like terms:
2n^2+4n+4=394
Subtract 394 on both sides:
2n^2+4n-390=0
Divide both sides by 2:
n^2+2n-195=0
Now we need to find two numbers that multiply to be -195 and add up to be 2.
15 and -13 since 15(-13)=-195 and 15+(-13)=2
So the factored form is
(n+15)(n-13)=0
This means we have n+15=0 and n-13=0 to solve.
n+15=0
Subtract 15 on both sides:
n=-15
n-13=0
Add 13 on both sides:
n=13
So if n=13 , then n+2=15.
If n=-15, then n+2=-13.
Let's check both results
(n,n+2)=(13,15)
13^2+15^2=169+225=394. So (13,15) looks good!
(n,n+2)=(-15,-13)
(-15)^2+(-13)^2=225+169=394. So (-15,-13) looks good!

Answer:
Well you can try to use a calculator, like the one on google. I can try to help if you really need it.
Step-by-step explanation:
Step-by-step explanation:
from what I can see there are 2 options to make the 2 triangles congruent :
either the opposite sides must be equal or the neighboring sides must be equal.
so, either
5x = 3x + 10
and
5x - 2 = 4x + 3
or
5x = 4x + 3
and
5x - 2 = 3x + 10
for the first
5x = 3x + 10
2x = 10
x = 5
control
5x - 2 = 4w + 3
5×5 - 2 = 4×5 + 3
23 = 23
correct.
for the second
5x = 4x + 3
x = 3
control
5×3 - 2 = 3×3 + 10
15 - 2 = 9 + 10
13 = 19
no, not a valid solution.
so, x = 5
