Consecutive numbers are always 1 away from each other
3,4
so consecutive is represented by
x and x+1
so sum is -171
x+x+1=-171
add like terms
2x+1=-171
subtract 1 from both sides
2x=-172
divide both sides by 2
x=-86
subustitute
x+1=otehr number
x+1=-86+1=-85
answer is -85 and -86
$793.50, All you do is multiply $15.87 by 50
Smaller angle = 41°
Larger angle = 139°
Step-by-step explanation:
(7x - 1) + (2x + 1) = 180
7x + 2x - 1 + 1 = 180
9x = 180
x = 20
- The measure of the smaller angle is
2x + 1
= 2(20) + 1
= 40 + 1
<u>= 41°</u>
- The measure of the larger angle is
7x - 1
= 7(20) - 1
= 140 - 1
<u>= 139°</u>
Add it together. You find area with base times height!!!
