Numbers are n, n+2 and we have n(n+2)=7224. Or
n^2+2n-7224=0
Using the quadratic equation
n=84. So n+2=86
The numbers are 84, 86
The answer would be the first choice. 
Explanation: The reason for this is that the question was pretty much just asking what the area of the resulting two-dimensional cross section would be -the shape in gray- (which can be found by using the formula 
. To add on, since the dimensions of the shape are already given (5 and 3) all you've to do is multiply: 3*5=15
That's how you get to the answer.
Let 2x – y = 3 ——— equation 1
Let x + 5y = 14 ——— equation 2
Making x the subject in eqn 1, = x = y + 3 / 2 ——— eqn 3
• Put eqn 3 in eqn 2
(y + 3 / 2) + 5y = 14
6y = 14 – 3/2
6y = 25/2
y = 25/12
• put y = 25/12 in eqn 3
x = (25/12 + 3/2)
x = 43/12
I believe the slope is -1
Answer:
732.7 I think
Step-by-step explanation:
You just multiply 28 by 26.17
