Given that,

the two numbers are consecutive

The two numbers are

x and x + 1

Sum of the numbers = 81

x + (x + 1) = 81

x + x + 1 = 81

2x = 81 - 1

2x = 80

x = 80/2

x = 40

Therefore, <em>the two numbers are</em> x = 40 and x + 1 = 41

Have you learned slope yet? Pick two points from the graph and do x-y on the top and x-y on the bottom. That would give you your slope then you can graph it. For example (-2,-1) (-1,1)
-2-(-1)
-1-1
Then that would give you -1/-2 so technically -1/2<< this is what you graph

(x^2+x-17)/(x-4) solve this
sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer:

\displaystyle x + 5 + \frac{3}{x - 4}

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the divisor of \displaystyle x - 4is in the form of \displaystyle x - c,we use what is called Synthetic Division. Now, in this formula, −c gives the OPPOSITE terms of what they really are, so do not forget it. Anyway, here is how it is done:

4| 1 1 −17

↓ 4 20

_________

1 5 3 → \displaystyle x + 5 + \frac{3}{x - 4}

You start by placing the <em>c</em> in the top left corner, then list all the coefficients of your dividend [x² + x - 17]. You bring down the original term closest to <em>c</em> then begin your multiplication. Now depending on what symbol your result is tells you whether the next step is to subtract or add, then you continue this process starting with multiplication all the way up until you reach the end. Now, when the last term is 0, that means you have no remainder. Finally, your quotient is one degree less than your dividend, so that 1 in your quotient can be an x, the 5 follows right behind it, and bringing up the rear, \displaystyle \frac{3}{x - 4},giving you the quotient of \displaystyle x + 5 + \frac{3}{x - 4}. However, in this case, since you have a remainder of 3, this gets set over the divisor.

I am joyous to assist you anytime.

I need to simplify √(5+2√2) and √(6+2√5)
SIZIF [17.4K]
This expression is easier than it looks like. I thought that to solve it you have for example to express the 2 via 10 * 5^-1 and stuff like that - but you can multiply and divide this expression by some factor. In our case first we multiply by conjunctive expression root(5-2root2) and the second by root(6+2root5). In first we get root16 and the second calculate.
