Let one integer be x, the consecutive odd integer is x+2
reciprocals are 1/x and 1/(x+2)
1/x +1/(x+2)=24/143
make the denominators the same:
(x+2)/[x(x+2)] +x/[x(x+2)]=24/143
143(2x+2)=24(x)(x+2)
286x+286=24x²+48x
24x²-238x-286=0
use the quadratic formula: x=22 this doesn't work because 22 is not an odd number.
or x=-2.1666666666 (this is not an integer)
weird.
The length and width of the rug is 20 and 11 feet respectively
The given parameters;
dimension of the room = 19 ft by 28 ft
maximum area of rug she can afford = 220 ft²
For a uniform stripe of floor around the rug, then suppose the uniform excess length of the floor to removed from each dimension = y
(28-2x)(19-2x)=220
532-94x+4x^2=220
4x^2-94x+312=0
x=39/2,4
For x=39/2, dimensions are negative.
The uniform dimension of the floor to be covered by the maximum area of rug she can afford = (28 - 4×2) and (19 -2×4 ) = 20 and 11
Thus, the dimensions of the rug should be 20 feet and 11 feet

Answer:
y-intercepts: (-3,0) , (-1,0) , (1,0)
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's solve your inequality step-by-step.
<span><span><span>4x</span>+11</span><23
</span>Step 1: Subtract 11 from both sides.
<span><span><span><span>4x</span>+11</span>−11</span><<span>23−11</span></span><span><span>4x</span><12
</span>Step 2: Divide both sides by 4.<span><span><span>4x</span>4</span><<span>124</span></span><span>x<3
</span><u>Answer:
</u><span> x<<span>3</span></span>
X intercepts are 2 and -1/2
