so basically what i was thinking of was they sold them in the spring
The consecutive positive integers would be: x and (x+1),
We would have to solve the following equation to find these numbers:
x(x+1)-[x+(x+1)]=29
x²+x-2x-1=29
x²-x-30=0
x=[1⁺₋√(1+120)]/2
x=(1⁺₋11)/2
We have two possible solutions:
x₁=(1-11)/2=-5 then: (x+1)=-5+1=-4 This is not the solution.
x₂=(1+11)/2=6 then: (x+1)=6+1=7 This solution is right.
Answer: the numbers would be 6 and 7.
Answer:
<em>The distance between the points (1, 7) and (10, 1) is 10.82 units</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Distance between two points
</u>
The distance between points A(x,y) B(w,z) can be calculated with the formula:

We are given the points (1,7) and (10,1), let's use their values and compute the required distance:



The distance between the points (1, 7) and (10, 1) is 10.82 units
(-4/5) / 3 =
-4/5 * 1/3 =
-4/15 mile per minute
