Six tenths, one half, two fifths
The area of a triangle is 180
So the so the product of two consecutive numbers is 4160 or
x(x+1)=4160
distribute
x^2+x=4160
subtract 4160 from both sides
x^2+x-4160=0
find the factor (if you want to know how, just ask in the comments)
(x-64)(x+65)=0
so the answer is x could be 64 or -65
so the number that work are 64,65 and -65,-64
I think any of these would work
10;18
15;28
20;35
Let's solve your equation step-by-step.
(−

/8
)(x)=−160
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
−5
/8
x=−160
Step 2: Multiply both sides by 8/(-5).
(
8
/−5
)x(
−5
/8
x)=(
8/
−5
)*(−160)
x=256
Answer:
x=256
