Let the integers be x and x+1.
x = 6 + 2(x + 1)
x = 6 + 2x + 2
x = -8
Hence, the integers are -8 and -7.
= > x² + 7x + 12 = 12
= > x² + ( 4 + 3 )x + 12 = 12
= > x² + 4x + 3x + 12 = 12
= > x( x + 4 ) + 3( x + 4 ) = 12
= > ( x + 4 ) ( x + 3 ) = 12
Percy did correct till this step. But by doing like this, Percy can't get the values of the variable x.
Percy should follow the following steps :
= > x² + 7x + 12 = 12
Add -12 on both sides,
= > x² + 7x + 12 - 12 = 12 - 12
= > x² + 7x = 0
= > x( x + 7 ) = 0
= > ( x = 0 ) or ( x + 7 = 0 )
= > ( x = 0 ) or ( x = - 7 )
Hence, required value(s) of x is 0 or -7

B. 11
The answer for the second equation is,
D.none of these.
Answer:
(2, -5)
Step-by-step explanation:
x is defined by the first equation as x = -3y – 13. Substitute -3y – 13 for x in the second equation:
2( -3y – 13) + 2y = -6.
Performing the indicated multiplication, we get:
-6y - 26 + 2y = -6
Combining like terms results in:
-4y = 20, so that y = -5
Using the first equation, we find x for y = -5:
x = -3(-5) - 13 = 2
The solution is thus (2, -5) (Answer C)
