Answer:
We know that the kite with the tail is 15 feet and 6 inches. While 6 inches is 0,50 foot, it's 15,5 feet. If the lenght of the kite is x, then:
15,5 = x + 1,5 + 2x
15,5 = 3x + 1,5 / - 1,5 (both sides)
14 = 3x / : 3 (both sides)
x ≈ 4,66
The kite is approx .4,66 feet long. It means that the tail is about 15,5 - 4,66 = 10,84 feet long.
he bought 18 horses, the cows are irrelevant to the question, that was in there to confuse you.
Answer:
The two consecutive positive integers are 7 and 8
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x ----> the first positive integer
x+1 ----> the second consecutive positive integer
we know that
Solve for x
Solve the quadratic equation by graphing
The solution is x=7
see the attached figure
Find the value of x+1
x+1=7+1=8
therefore
The two consecutive positive integers are 7 and 8
Answer:
