Answer:
<em>Set the function equal to 0</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Standard Form of the Quadratic Equation</u>
The form

is called the standard form of a quadratic equation. It can be clearly identified the terms of a second-degree polynomial equated to 0.
The equation is given in the form:

And we need to operate the expression to make it look like a standard form. The first logical step should be to set the function equal to 0 and then start to operate the resulting expression. It can be done by subtracting 8 on both sides of the equation:

Answer: Set the function equal to 0
# of apples
3/8(a)=# of oranges
p=# of pears
3/4(p)=# of oranges
(3/8)a=(3/4)p
(3/8)/(3/4)=p/a
(3/8)(6/8)=p/a
3/6=p/a
1/2=p/a
the ratios of pears to apples is 1 to 2
for every 1 pear there are 2 apples
if there are 4 pears there are 8 apples
there are 8 apples
(3/8)(8)=3 oranges
there are 4 pears
(3/4)(4)=3 oranges again
8 apples, 3 oranges, 4 pears
15 pieces of fruit and 3 are oranges
ratio is 3/15=1/5

Let's the name the first number x and the consecutive number x + 1. The sum of both of these numbers equals to 53.
We now have our equation:
x + x + 1 = 53
Now solve for x.
x + x + 1 = 53
2x + 1 = 53 <-- Combine like terms
2x = 52 <-- Subtract 1 from each side
x = 26
So, the first number is 26 and the second number is 27.
