2 consecutive numbers....x and x + 1
x(x + 1) = 182
x^2 + x = 182
x^2 + x - 182 = 0
(x - 13)(x + 14) = 0
x - 13 = 0
x = 13
x + 14 = 0
x = -14....not this one because it is negative
x + 1 = 13 + 1 = 14
ur 2 numbers are : 13 and 14
Hey!!
here is your answer >>>
the total money is 270 , it is shared among three people .
let's take the amount of Polly as X
then, the amount of Andy would be 2x
then, the amount of Phoebe would be 6x
the sum of 6x,2x and x is 270!.
let's add them up,
9x = 270
x = 30!.
Polly = £30
Andy= £60
Phoebe = £180
Hope my answer helps!
Step-by-step explanation:
17) 3x+5-12+4x+2x
3x+4x+2x +5-12
8x-7
if x =6
8*6-7 =48-7
= 41
18.) 9(3x-4y+8)
27x-36y+72
