2 consecutive odd integers.....x and x + 2.....the product means multiply....the sum means add.
x(x + 2) = 4(x + x + 2) - 1
x^2 + 2x = 4(2x + 2) - 1
x^2 + 2x = 8x + 8 - 1
x^2 + 2x = 8x + 7
x^2 + 2x - 8x - 7 = 0
x^2 - 6x - 7 = 0
(x - 7)(x + 1) = 0
x - 7 = 0 x + 2 = 7 + 2 = 9
x = 7
x + 1 = 0 x + 2 = -1 + 2 = 1
x = -1
there can be 2 answers for this....
(1) 7 and 9
(2) -1 and 1
The answer is 11 & 51/100!
R=5
B=4+G
Y=G-3
R+B+Y+G=24
(5)+(4+G)+(G-3)+G=24
5+4+G+G-3+G=24
3G+6=24
3G=18
G=6
B=4+(6)
B=10
Y=(6)-3
y=3
answer
R+B+Y+G=24
5+10+3+6=24
Answer:
b pick 3 marbles form a bag of 10 different colored marbles
Step-by-step explanation:
Step-by-step explanation:
x² + 4x − 4 = 8
x² + 4x − 12 = 0
(x + 6) (x − 2) = 0
x = -6 or x = 2
