Answer:
The two page numbers are 78 and 79.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's take the page numbers are x and x + 1
.
The produce of the page numbers is 6162
so, x(x + 1) = 6162
Here we have to use the quadratic formula to solve for x.
The quadratic formula, x = 
Here a =1, b = 1 and c = -6162
Plugging in the value of a, b and c in the above formula, we get
x = [-1 ± 157] ÷ 2
Let's take the positive value alone since the page number cannot be negative.
x = [-1 + 157]
÷2
x = 78
The next page number x + 1 = 78 + 1 = 79
Therefore, the two page numbers are 78 and 79.

Answer:
x = 0.75
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplifying
(7x + -5) + -1(3x + -2) = 0
Reorder the terms:
(-5 + 7x) + -1(3x + -2) = 0
Remove parenthesis around (-5 + 7x)
-5 + 7x + -1(3x + -2) = 0
Reorder the terms:
-5 + 7x + -1(-2 + 3x) = 0
-5 + 7x + (-2 * -1 + 3x * -1) = 0
-5 + 7x + (2 + -3x) = 0
Reorder the terms:
-5 + 2 + 7x + -3x = 0
Combine like terms: -5 + 2 = -3
-3 + 7x + -3x = 0
Combine like terms: 7x + -3x = 4x
-3 + 4x = 0
Solving
-3 + 4x = 0
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '3' to each side of the equation.
-3 + 3 + 4x = 0 + 3
Combine like terms: -3 + 3 = 0
0 + 4x = 0 + 3
4x = 0 + 3
Combine like terms: 0 + 3 = 3
4x = 3
Divide each side by '4'.
x = 0.75
Simplifying
x = 0.75
