Answer: 21

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the consecutive odd numbers be represented by x and x+2. Therefore,

x × (x+2) = 483

x² + 2x = 483

x² + 2x - 483 = 0

x² + 23x - 21x - 483 = 0

x(x + 23) - 21(x + 23) = 0

(x - 21) = 0

x = 0 + 21

x = 21

The smaller integer is 21

The larger integer is 21 + 2 = 23.

Answer:

  4x^2 +12x +44 remainder 161x +84

Step-by-step explanation:

At each step, the quotient term is the ratio of the leading dividend term to the leading divisor term. The first quotient term, for example, is ...

  (4x^4)/(x^2) = 4x^2

The quotient term found this way is multiplied by the divisor and subtracted from the dividend. The difference is the new dividend and the process repeats.

You're done when the degree of the dividend is less than the degree of the divisor. This remainder can be expressed as a fraction with the divisor as the denominator.

  \dfrac{4x^4+5x-4}{x^2-3x-2}=4x^2+12x+44+\dfrac{161x+84}{x^2-3x-2}

Sloan [31]

Answer: 12s+27j≤450

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are informed that Jackie has a maximum of $450 to spend on shirts and jeans and that the shirts she wants to buy are $12 each, including tax while the jeans she wants to buy are $27 each, including tax.

The inequality that represents all possible combinations of s, the number of shirts, and j, pairs of jeans, Jackie can buy will be:

= 12s+27j≤450
