Answer:

3 and 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the two consecutive odd integers be x and x + 2.

Now,

The given statement is

x^2 + 3 \times (x+2)=24\\x^2 + 3x+6-24 = 0 \\x^2 + 3x-18 = 0\\x^2+6x-3x-18=0\\x(x+6)-3(x+6)=0\\(x-3)(x+6)=0\\x=3,-6

Taking x=3.

Hence, two consecutive odd integers are 3 and 5.

Find the x intercepts of f(x) = –16x^2 + 22x + 3
Helga [31]
That is where the line crosses the x axis or where y=0

0=-16x^2+22x+3
we gon do grouping
ac method
-16 times 3=-48

what 2 numbers multiply to get -48 and add to get 22
-2 and 24
0=-16x^2-2x+24x+3
group
0=(-16x^2-2x)+(24x+3)
undistribute
0=-2x(8x+1)+3(8x+1)
undistribute
0=(8x+1)(-2x+3)
set eaqual to 0

8x+1=0
8x=-1
x=-1/8

-2x+3=0
3=2x
3/2=x

x intercepts ate x=-1/8 and x=3/2

Mr. Jones wants to buy 6 tickets to a play. Each ticket costs $10. Mr. Jones has $45 in his pocket.
lawyer [7]

Answer:

He needs $15 more

Step-by-step explanation:

since each ticket costs $10 dollars, and there is 6 tickets, we need to multiply 10 x 6 to get the total cost of all tickets

10 x 6 = $60

To find how much more money he needs to buy all tickets, we need to subtract $45 from the total cost of tickets, which is $60

$60 - $45 = $15

Hope you understand this explanation!
