Example:
The sum of two consecutive integers is -15. What is the product of the two integers?
x = 1st consecutive integer
x + 1 = 2nd consecutive integer {consecutive integers increase by 1}
x + x + 1 = -15 {the sum of two consecutive integers is -15}
2x + 1 = -15 {combined like terms}
2x = -16 {subtracted 1 from each side}
x = -8 {divided each side by 2}
x + 1 = -7 {substituted -8, in for x, into x + 1}
-8 and -7 are the two consecutive integers
Their product is 56.
Answer:
x = 9
Step-by-step explanation:
first, you would subtract 1 from 80 and get -9x = -81 then you can just divide -81 by -9 or 9 from 81, either way, you'll have x = 9
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Jamie is correct.
two angles are equal in an isosceles triangle.
let the angles be x,x,y
if she knows x
then y=180-(x+x)=180-2x
so she can find y
similarly if she knows y then she can calculate x.
Increment = 6% = 0.06
The explicit formula for the series is;
C(n) = C(n-1)(1.06), where n = nth month, C(n-1) = cost during previous month, C(n) = cost in month n
Applying the explicit formula;
Current cost = $150
2nd month cost = 150*1.06 = $159
3rd month cost = 159*1.06 = $168.54
The second option is correct.
