Start by writing your own expression.
x is the smaller number and x + 1 is the next number
x(x + 1) = 420
x^2 + x - 420 =0 ⇒ constant = -420
1,000 cubic feet because the pyramid is 4000 cubic feet on an area base of 40.
A = speed of one boy
<span>a + 3 = speed of 2nd boy </span>
<span>d = speed X time ... time is 3 hrs </span>
<span>68 = 3a + 3(a + 3) </span>
<span>6a = 59 </span>
<span>a = 59/6 = 9 5/6 miles per hour </span>
<span>a + 3 = 12 5/6 miles per hou</span>
6 + 2 = 12
When 2 = 3
Change the equation to: 6 + 3
So,
6 + 3 = 9
You're answer is 9
your answer is right since your going to the right +3 and decreasing -9 units
