Let one integer be x, the consecutive odd integer is x+2
reciprocals are 1/x and 1/(x+2)
1/x +1/(x+2)=24/143
make the denominators the same:
(x+2)/[x(x+2)] +x/[x(x+2)]=24/143
143(2x+2)=24(x)(x+2)
286x+286=24x²+48x
24x²-238x-286=0
use the quadratic formula: x=22 this doesn't work because 22 is not an odd number.
or x=-2.1666666666 (this is not an integer)
weird.
5/4
(15/16)(4/3) The 4/3 is the reciprocal of 3/4
=5/4
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
Unit rate means that the denominator of the units has to be 1: units have to be miles/1 hour
Thus divide miles by hours to get the unit rate. The answer would then be 7/2 miles/1 hour
It's 180-50-50=180-100=80°
