Consecutive integers are integers that follow one another. For example, 2,3,4,5,etc.... are consecutive integers
So algebraically, consecutive integers follow the form x, x+1, x+2, etc...
Since the sum of two consecutive integers is 239, this means:
x%2Bx%2B1=239
2x%2B1=239 Combine like terms on the left side
2x=239-1Subtract 1 from both sides
2x=238 Combine like terms on the right side
x=%28238%29%2F%282%29 Divide both sides by 2 to isolate x
x=119 Divide
So our first number is x=119
So to find the next number, simply add 1 to it to get 119%2B1=120
Answer: So our two page numbers are 119 and 120
Answer:
x = 3 ± 
Step-by-step explanation:
x² - 6x - 4 = 0 ( add 4 to both sides )
x² - 6x = 4
To complete the square
add ( half the coefficient of the x- term)² to both sides
x² + 2(- 3)x + 9 = 4 + 9
(x - 3)² = 13 ( take square root of both sides )
x - 3 = ± ( add 3 to both sides )
x = 3 ±
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
{ - 9, - 4, - 1}
Answer:8% discount will be given
Step-by-step explanation:
So, first let's change these numbers into decimal form:
3*0.1 + 4*0.01 + 8*0.001 ? 1.2
Multiply:
0.3 + 0.04 + 0.008 ? 1.2
0.348 < 1.2
One and two tenths is larger.
