Let the two numbers be -x and -x - 1, then
-x(-x - 1) = 1,122
x^2 + x = 1,122
x^2 + x + 1/4 = 1,122 + 1/4
(x + 1/2)^2 = 4,489/4
x + 1/2 = sqrt(4,489/4) = + or -67/2
x = 67/2 - 1/2 = 66/2 = 33

Therefore, the two numbers are -33 and -34

Given

x+1 = \sqrt{7x+15}

We have to set the restraint

x+1\geq 0 \iff x \geq -1

because a square root is non-negative, and thus it can't equal a negative number. With this in mind, we can square both sides:

(x+1)^2=7x+15 \iff x^2+2x+1=7x+15 \iff x^2-5x-14 = 0

The solutions to this equation are 7 and -2. Recalling that we can only accept solutions greater than or equal to -1, 7 is a feasible solution, while -2 is extraneous.

Similarly, we have

x-3 = \sqrt{x-1}+4 \iff x-7=\sqrt{x-1}

So, we have to impose

x-7\geq 0 \iff x \geq 7

Squaring both sides, we have

(x-7)^2=x-1 \iff x^2-14x+49=x-1 \iff x^2-15x+50 = 0

The solutions to this equation are 5 and 10. Since we only accept solutions greater than or equal to 7, 10 is a feasible solution, while 5 is extraneous.

To find the average in this problem you would add the number of units for each day and divide by the number of days (units/days) so the answer is 17

A ball is thrown into the air with an upward velocity of 36 ft/s. Its height h in feet after t seconds is given by the function
elixir [45]
This can be solved in two ways: With heavy tools or with just algebra. 
What is your level? Have you studied calculus? 

With pure algebra: 
We need to find the maximum of the function <span>h = −16t^2 + 36t + 5
Lets take out -1 for simplicity: 
</span><span>h = −(16t2 - 36t - 5) 
For now lets just work with this: </span>16t^2 - 36t - 5
16t^2=(4t)^2 
(4t-x)^2= 16t^2-2*4xt+x^2
we have -36t so x should be 4.5 as 2*4*4.5=36

Lets see what we have now:
16t^2 - 36t - 5= (4t-4.5)^2 is this true? No but close
(4t-4.5)^2= 16t^2- 2*4*4.5t +4.5^2= 16t^2-36t+20.25

16t^2 - 36t - 5   and 16t^2-36t+20.25 nearl the same just take away 25.25 from the right hand side

Getting long, just stay with me: 
16t^2 - 36t - 5= (4t-4.5)^2 - 25.25

h= -{(4t-4.5)^2 -25.25}
h=-(4t-4.5)^2 + 25.25

We want to find the maximum of this function. -(4t-4.5)^2 this bit is always negative or 0, so it maximum is when it is 0. Solve: 4t-4.5=0
t=1,125
