Answer
The numbers are (-8, 3) or (3, -8).
Step-by-step explanation:
- Step 1: Given the product of the numbers are -24 and their sum are -5. Let the numbers be a and b. Form equations out of these details.
⇒ a + b = -5 ⇒ b = -5 - a
⇒ a × b = -24 -------- (1)
- Step 2: Substitute the value of b in eq(1)
⇒ a × (-5 - a) = - 24
⇒ -5a - a² = -24
⇒ a² + 5a - 24 = 0
- Step 3: Solve the quadratic equation for a.
a = (-5 ± √25 - 4 × 1 × -24)/2
= (-5 ± √121)/2
= - 16/2, 6/2 = -8 or 3
- Step 4: For each value of a, find b.
When a = -8, b = -5 +8 = 3
When a = 3, b = -5 - 3 = -8.
The smallest of the four numbers is x.
Since the four numbers are consecutive, this means that each number is one more than the previous.
Therefore, the four numbers are:
x
x + 1
x+1 + 1 = x+2
x+2 + 1 = x+3
Now, we are given that the sum (s) of the four numbers is 2174
This means that:
s = x+x+1+x+2+x+3
s = 4x + 6
We are given that s = 2174. Substitute with s in the above equation and solve for x as follows:
2174 = 4x + 6
4x = 2174 - 6
4x = 2168
x = 2168 / 4
x = 542
Based on the above calculations, the four numbers are:
542, 543, 544 and 555

Answer: 5 - 4i (choice A)</h3>
===================================================
Work Shown:
x = the other number
(5+4i)*x = 41
x = 41/(5+4i)
x = 41*(5-4i)/( (5+4i)*(5-4i) ) ..... see note below
x = 41*(5-4i)/( 41 )
x = (41/41)*(5-4i)
x = 5 - 4i
As a way to check, (5+4i)*(5-4i) = 5^2+4^2 = 25+16 = 41
The rule used is (a-bi)(a+bi) = a^2 + b^2

Note: I multiplied top and bottom by (5-4i) to get rid of the imaginary term in the denominator.
