Rice prices must be kept within reach of the poorest people.
The consecutive numbers are either 2 and 3, or 7 and 8..
x(x+1) = x^2 + x
x^2 + x = 10x-14
quadratic form of x^2 + x = 10x-14:
x^2 - 9x + 14 = 0
(x-2)(x-7) = 0
x = 2, 7
so 2 and 3, or 7 and 8 are the answers
Free Trade is favorable to countries that have control over capital. Small and medium enterprises have to strive harder to penetrate the market.
Huge competitors can dictate the prices of their product and affect the market because of monopoly. Trade restrictions favor for those capitalist nation whose technology are advanced and can do massive production.
