(a ± b)² = a² ± 2ab + b² . . . . . . . (signs match)
The middle term is twice the product of the roots of the other two terms. This tells you the terms of the binomial are the square roots of the end terms.
The sign in the binomial will match the sign of the "2ab" term. The order of terms in the binomial doesn't matter. (a±b)² = (b±a)² when signs match.
the two consecutive numbers are 56 and 57
x+x+1=113
2x+1=113
2x=113-1
2x=112
x=112/2
x=56
therefore, x=56
x+1= 56+1= 57
Just take both sides multiply by 2 then divide 3
Answer:
a = 1
b = -1
Step-by-step explanation:
First, let's make equations out of those given f(x)'s
-4 = -3a + b
2 = 3a + b
We can use elimination method to get rid of the a real quick
-4 = b
2 = b
Add those together
-2 = 2b
Divide both sides by 2
-2/2 = 2b/2
b = -1
Plug in the new b in one of the original equations; I'm gonna use the bottom one
2 = 3a - 1
+ 1 + 1
3 = 3a
3/3 = 3a/3
a = 1
