The correct option is B): "<span>Let x = 1st integer. Let x + 2 = 2nd integer.</span><span>"
Given that "The sum of two consecutive odd integers is 28."
Now the difference between two odd numbers is 2.
So this means that one odd number has to be greater than the other by 2.
Let the smaller number be 'X' therefore the bigger number will be 'x+2'
thus
x + (x+2) = 28
therefore,
x + x + 2 = 28
now we subtract "2" from both the sides
therefore,
2x = 26
now dividing throughout by 2 we get:
x = 13
therefore,
x + 2 = 13+2
= 15
therefore, the numbers are
13 AND 15</span>
we know that
arithematic sequence will always have common difference
(a)
−5, −7, −10, −14, −19, …
we can see that


they are not equal
so, this is not arithematic sequence
(2)
1.5, −1.5, 1.5, −1.5, …
we can see that


they are not equal
so, this is not arithematic sequence
(3)
4.1, 5.1, 6.2, 7.2, …
we can see that


they are not equal
so, this is not arithematic sequence
(4)
−1.5, −1, −0.5, 0, …
we can see that


they are equal
so, this is arithematic sequence
All of given options contain quadratic functions. One way to determine the extreme value is squaring the expression with variable x.
Option B contain the expression where you can see perfect square. Thus, equation
(choice B) reveals its extreme value without needing to be altered.
To determine the extreme value of this equation, you should substitute x=2 (x-value that makes expression in brackets equal to zero) into the function notation:
The extreme value of this equation has a minimum at the point (2,5).
Answer:
The answer would be C
Step-by-step explanation:
The only logical reason would be positive because the parabola is opening up. The average rte of change is opening 0.5 per square
