Answer:

There are no two consecutive whole numbers that sum to 206 (See proof below)

Step-by-step explanation:

let the first number be x

since the numbers are whole and consecutive, the second number must be (x + 1)

we are given that the number sum to 206

hence,

x + (x+1) = 206

x + x + 1 = 206

2x + 1 = 206  (subtract 1 from both sides)

2x = 206 - 1

2x = 205  (divide both sides by 2)

x  = 205/2 = 102.5  (NOT A WHOLE NUMBER)

if x = 102.5, then the second number must be

x + 1 = 102.5 + 1 + 103.5 (ALSO NOT A WHOLE NUMBER)

Answer:

102.5, 103.5

Step-by-step explanation:

a+a+1=206

2a+1=206

2a=205

a=102.5

103.5

I think there is a bug here. They can't be whole numbers.

An airplane ascends such that its gain h in altitude is proportional to the square root of the change x in horizontal distance t
Mazyrski [523]

Answer:velocity=185 m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

So make k the subject of the formula by divide both by sqrt(x)

h= k × sqrt(x)

k=h/sqrt(x)

k=256 / sqrt(256)

k=256 / 16

k=16

So now substitute the value of k :

h= 16 × sqrt (x)

Then differentiate:

=(1/2 × sqrt(x))× 16

=16/(2×sqrt(x)

=8/sqrt(x)

Then

= 8/sqrt(x) × 370

=8/ sqrt(256) × 370

=8/16 × 370

velocity=185 m/s
