We have to present the number 41 as the sum of two squares of consecutive positive integers.

1² = 1

2² = 4

3² = 9

4² = 16

5² = 25

16 + 25 = 41

<h3>Answer: 4 and 5</h3>

Other method:

n, n + 1 - two consecutive positive integers

The equation:

n² + (n + 1)² = 41     <em>use (a + b)² = a² + 2ab + b²</em>

n² + n² + 2(n)(1) + 1² = 41

2n² + 2n + 1 = 41     <em>subtract 41 from both sides</em>

2n² + 2n - 40 = 0     <em>divide both sides by 2</em>

n² + n - 20 = 0

n² + 5n - 4n - 20= 0

n(n + 5) - 4(n + 5) = 0

(n + 5)(n - 4) = 0 ↔ n + 5 = 0 ∨ n - 4 =0

n = -5 < 0 ∨ n = 4 >0

n = 4

n + 1 = 4 + 1 = 5

<h3>Answer: 4 and 5.</h3>

Can someone please help me with this question
zlopas [31]

Answer:

15 kilometers

Step-by-step explanation:

So we know:

For 4 days she runs 1500 meters each day.

For 3 days she runs 3 kilometers each day.

First off, lets convert 1500 meters into kilometers.

There are 1000 meters in a kilometer, so pluggin in 1500 meters:

1500/1000 = 1.5

So for 4 days she runs 1.5 kilometers each day.

Now, to find the total kilometers, we must find multiply the 1.5 kilometers by the 4 days, the 3 kilometers by the 3 days, then add those two together.

So lets do this:

1.5*4 = 6

So she ran 6 kilometers in the first 4 days.

Next we have:

3*3 = 9

So she ran 9 kilometers in the last 3 days.

Now finally add them together:

6 + 9 = 15

So she ran a total of 15 kilometers.

Hope this helps!

An image of a parabolic lens is projected onto a graph. The y-intercept of the graph is (0, 90), and the zeros are 5 and 9. Whic
seraphim [82]
Given:

y-intercept of the graph: (0, 90)
zeros: 5 and 9

The equation that models the function based on the zeros given, is either

y = 90 (x-5) (x-9)
or
y= 2(x-5)(x-9)

try solving for the y-intercept of each function, 

y = 90 (0-5) (0-9)
  y = 4050
(0, 4050)

y = 2(0-5) (0-9)
y = 90
(0, 90)

therefore, the equation that models the function is y = 2(x-5)(x-9)
