Use a let statement
first
let x and x + 2 be the number so you write it like this
<u>let x = the first consecutive integer
</u><u>let x + 2 = the second consecutive integer
</u>
second
x(x+2)=323
x^2 + 2x = 323
-323 -323
x^2 + 2x -323 = 0
third
try to factor -323 so it is 19 and -17
(x + 19) (x - 17) = 0
x = 19
x = -17
hope this help

68x + 36y
General Formulas and Concepts:
- Order of Operations: BPEMDAS
- Combining like terms
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define expression</u>
(19x + 4y) + (49x + 32y)
<u>Step 2: Simplify expression</u>
- Combine like terms (x): 68x + 4y + 32y
- Combine like terms (y): 68x + 36y
If you know the whole price for 2.4 gallons, divide the whole price by 2.4 to get the cost for one, because when you multiply the cost for 1 by 2.4, you get the total.
7.56/2.4 = 3.15,
p= 3.15
