The integers are 52 and 53

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Consecutive numbers are numbers that follow each other in order. They have a difference of 1 between every two numbers

Let the two consecutive integers be x and x + 1

Given that, sum of two consecutive integers is 105

Therefore,

x + x + 1 = 105

Combine the like terms

2x + 1 = 105

2x = 105 - 1

2x = 104

Divide both sides of equation by 2

x = 52

Thus, another integer = x + 1 = 52 + 1 = 53

Thus the integers are 52 and 53

How do you solve for the central area of a polygon?

ycow [4]

Getting the central area of a polygon is not possible. Probably the question refers to the central angle. In a a regular polygon, getting the central angle is that you need to use the formula.

Central Angle of a polygon = 360 degrees / number of sides of a polygon.
Why 360 degrees? Because, a circle has a total of 360 degrees. And a circle is a polygon with no sides.

Need help with number 3 inequalities with variables on both sides

Volgvan

Answer:

x ≤ 2

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the inequality:

$\displaystyle{2x-3 \leq \dfrac{x}{2}}$

First, get rid of the denominator by multiplying both sides by 2:

$\displaystyle{2x\cdot 2-3\cdot 2 \leq \dfrac{x}{2}\cdot 2}\\\\\displaystyle{4x-6 \leq x}$

Add both sides by 6 then subtract both sides by x:

$\displaystyle{4x-6+6 \leq x+6}\\\\\displaystyle{4x \leq x+6}\\\\\displaystyle{4x-x \leq x+6-x}\\\\\displaystyle{4x-x \leq 6}\\\\\displaystyle{3x \leq 6}$
