To answer this item, we let x be the first positive integer. Then, the second would be x+1. Their reciprocals would be 1/x and 1/(x+1). Then, the equation that would best represent the scenario above is,
1/x + 1/(x+1) = 17/72
Solving the equation above,
((x+1) + x) / (x)(x+1) = 17/72
If we take the numerators of both sides of the equation,
(x+1) + x = 17
The value of x from the equation is 8 and x+1 would be 9. Thus, the answer would be 8 and 9.
Answer:
AN = 16 units
Step-by-step explanation:
So we can use the fact that 
- Since this is an isosceles triangle, segments FO and FR are both equal to 7
Manipulating the equation above to solve for AN we have 
- Substituting in the known values we have
Answer:
You will pay $4.31
Step-by-step explanation:
I know this because a fourth of $5.75 is 1.4375 so you would round it to $1.44 and then $5.75 - $1.44 is $4.31.
So you will pay $4.31 for one milkshake.
