Answer: 
Step-by-step explanation:
You need to set up two cases (Positive case and negative case) and solve for "x".
- POSITIVE CASE IF: 

- NEGATIVE CASE IF: 

Therefore, the solution is:

Y=-7 use distributive property add like terms
Two consecutive odd integers have a difference of 2. If you let the smaller one of them be x, the other one is x + 2.
Their sum is -36, so add x and x + 2, and set equal to -36. Then solve for x to find the smaller one. Finally, 2 more than x is the greater of the two integers.
x + x + 2 = -36
2x + 2 = -36
2x = -38
x = -19
The smaller one of the two integers is -19.
x + 2 = -19 + 2 = -17
The greater of the two integers is -17.
Answer: The integers are -19 and -17.
Answer:
4 3/4
Step-by-step explanation:
Just multiply 1 3/4 and 3 = 4 3/4
Answer:
83.74 in squared
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of the original rectangle is: 14 * 8 = 112 in squared.
The area of a circle is
, where r is the radius. In this case, we know the diameter is 6, so the radius is 3. Then, the area of the circle is:
3.14 * 3^2 = 3.14 * 9 = 28.26 in squared.
The remaining area is just the total minus the circle area:
112 - 28.26 = 83.74 in squared
