Consecutive numbers would be like 2 and 3, or 7 and 8.
All we need to do is keep multiplying pairs of consecutive numbers until we get above 50.
1 × 2 = 2 (that's one.)
2 × 3 = 6 (two)
3 × 4 = 12 (three)
4 × 5 = 20 (four)
5 × 6 = 30 (five)
6 × 7 = 42 (six...)
<em>7 × 8 = 56 > 50</em>
We have a total of 6 numbers that equal the product of 2 consecutive intergers<em>

Answer:
x=34
Step-by-step explanation:
6 - ( x-7) ^ 1/3 = 3
Subtract 6 from each side
6-6 - ( x-7) ^ 1/3 = 3-6
- ( x-7) ^ 1/3 = -3
Divide each side by a negative
( x-7) ^ 1/3 = 3
Cube each side
( x-7) ^ 1/3 ^3 = (3)^3
x-7 = 27
Add 7 to each side
x-7+7 = 27+7
x = 34
Check
6 - ( 34-7) ^ 1/3 = 3
6 - (27^1/3 = 3
6 -3 =3
3=3
