Answer:
The numbers are 6 and 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = integer
The second is x-2
Product of x*(x-2) is 24
x(x-2) = 24
Distribute
x^2 -2x =24
Subtract 24 from each side
x^2 -2x -24 =24-24
x^2 -2x-24 =0
Factor
What two number multiply together to give 24 and add to -2
-6*4= -24
-6+4 = -2
(x-6) (x+4) =0
Using the zero product property
x-6 =0 x+4 = 0
x=6 x=-4
The question states the number is positive
x=6
The second number is x-2 = 4
The numbers are 6 and 4
Answer: their bank balance would be
- 64.49
Step-by-step explanation:
They have 100 in savings and 121.50 in their bank account. It means that the total amount that they have to buy the freezer is
100 + 121.5 = 221.5
The cost of the freezer is 285.99. If they buy the freezer, the amount that would be left in their bank account or the bank balance would be
221.5 - 285.99 = - 64.49
The negative value is due to the face that they the cost of the freezer is higher than what they have in total.
In a boxplot, there are 5 figures that are denoted, these are known as the 5-figure summary:
(1) the black dot to the very left of the boxplot is the minimum, or in other words the lowest data value
(2) the second black dot from the left is Q1 (quartile 1) and the area between the minimum and Q1 represents 25% of the data
(3) the middle dot is the median (or sometimes called Q2), which is the middle value of the data set - in this case it is 24
(4) the black dot to the right of the median represents Q3
(5) the black dot to the very right is the maximum value, or the highest data value
