Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the first integer be x, then the next is x+1.
x(x + 1) = 3(x + 1) + 4
x^2 + x = 3x+ 3 + 4
x^2 + x - 3x - 7 = 0
x^2 - 2x - 7 = 0
Solving this does not give an integer so maybe there's something wrong with the question??
Answer:
x= -2-√11. or. x= -2 + √11
Step-by-step explanation:
solving quadratic equation by completing the square
x^2+4x-7=0
x^2+4x=7
x^2+4x + (4/2)^2=7 + (4/2)^2 ( adding (1/2 coefficient of x)^2 on both sides
x^2+4x + 4=7 + 4
x^2+4x + 4=11. factorize(x^2+4x + 4) into (x + 2)^2
(x + 2)^2=11
√(x + 2)^2= + - √11
x + 2 = + - √11
there are two different solution .
x + 2 = -√11. or x + 2 = + √11.
x= -2-√11. or. x= -2 + √11.
