n, n+1 - two consecutive integers
n(n + 1) = 50 <em>use distributive property</em>
n² + n = 50 <em>subtract 50 from both sides</em>
n² + n - 50 = 0
-----------------------------------------------------
ax² + bx + c =0
if b² - 4ac > 0 then we have two solutions:
[-b - √(b² - 4ac)]/2a and [-b - √(b² + 4ac)]/2a
if b² - 4ac = 0 then we have one solution -b/2a
if b² - 4ac < 0 then no real solution
----------------------------------------------------------
n² + n - 50 = 0
a = 1, b = 1, c = -50
b² - 4ac = 1² - 4(1)(-50) = 1 + 200 = 201 > 0 → two solutions
√(b² - 4ac) = √(201) - it's the irrational number
Answer: There are no two consecutive integers whose product is 50.
Answer:
The missing side is 5 sq units.
Count each square unit without a grid.
The picture should prove this true that I edited.
<h3 /><h3>Proof ↓</h3>
We need to write system of equations for this problem. Reading text we write 1 equation by 1.
first lets name our variables
x - Kiana cards
y - Gary cards
z - Monty cards
m - Willa cards
x = y-3 which we can write as y = x+3
z = x + 7
m = 2z
x + y + z + m = 74
I think easiest way to solve this is to express all variables in last equation and solve for x.
x + x+3 + x + 7+ 2x + 14= 74
5x = 50
x = 10
now we just calculate cards given to each friend
y = 13
z = 17
m = 34
Answer:
A section of wall is being framed. A model of the framing work is shown below. Vertical and parallel lines c, d, and e are cut by diagonal transversal b. The uppercase right angle formed by the intersection of lines b and c is angle A. The uppercase left angle formed by the intersection of lines d and b is 125 degrees. Which best describes the relationship between the 125° angle and angle A? They are same side interior angles. Angle A measures 55°. They are alternate interior angles. Angle A measures 125°. They are vertical angles. Angle A measures 125°. They are corresponding angles. Angle A measures 55°.
angle D
