(X)+(X+1)=24
"consecutive" means right after the other, so, if the first one is (X), the second integer <u>must be</u> (X+1). The answer 24 is given so you just have to solve the equation.
2X+1=24
2X=23
X=11.5
Answer:
40.25 if my math is right
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's assume
length of rectangle =L
width of rectangle =W
You enclose 3 sides of the garden with 40 feet of fencing
so, we get

now, we can solve for L

we know that
area of rectangle is


now, we can plug

now, we can solve for W

we can use quadratic formula


we can take anyone value ..because both are giving positive value
first dimensions:

now, we can find L


so, length is 34.142feet
width is 2.929 feet
Second dimensions:

now, we can find L


so, length is 5.858feet
width is 17.071 feet
Answer:
GK = 9cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Length of diagonal FH = 9 cm
By the property of a rectangle,
"Lengths of the diagonals of a rectangle measure the same"
FH = GK
Therefore, GK = FH = 9cm
