Question

Find thetwo consecutive integers whose product is 24​

Answer 1

Answer:

There is no solution to this equation that is an integer for x.

Step-by-step explanation:

x is the first integer, and x+1 the second

$x(x+1) = 24\\x^{2} + x - 24 =0$

$x = \frac{-1+\sqrt{1^{2}+4*24}}{2} =\frac{-1+\sqrt{97}}{2}\\x = \frac{-1-\sqrt{1^{2}+4*24}}{2} =\frac{-1-\sqrt{97}}{2}$
