So consecutive intergers are 1 away from each other so
the numbers are
x,x+1,x+2
if the product (multily) of 2 smaeller is 5 less than 5 times largest so
(x times (x+1)) is 5 less than 5 times (x+2)
(x times (x+1))=-5+5(x+2)
pemdas
distribute using distributiver property
a(b+c)=ab+ac so
x times (x+1)=x^2+x
5(x+2)=5x+10
we have
x^2+x=-5+5x+10
add like terms
x^2+x=5x+5
subtract (5x+5) from both sides
x^2-4x-5=0
factor by find what 2 numbers add to -4 and multply to get -5
numbers are 1 and -5
so we do
(x+1)(x-5)=0
sete each to zero
x+1=0
x-5=0
x+1=0
sbtract 1
x=-1
we want positie so thisis wrong answer
x-5=0
add 5
x=5
subsitute
x,x+1,x+2
5,5+1,5+2
5,6,7
smalles is 5
Answer:
options are 3 and 4
Step-by-step explanation:
The difference of squares is defined as In option 1,
It can be written as
It is the sum of squares, therefore the option 1 is incorrect.
In option 2,
The number 40 is not a complete square of any number, therefore option 2 is incorrect.
In option 3,
It can be rewritten as
It is the difference of squares, therefore option 3 is correct.
In option 4,
It can be rewritten as
It is the difference of squares, therefore option 4 is correct.
have a good Day!
2p-b=c-ap
2p+ap=c+b
p(2+a)=c+b
So, p=(c+b)/(2+a)
the correct answer would be A. 8^-12
8^2 /8^16 = 1/8^14 = 2.27373*10^-13
8^-12 = 1.45519*10^-11
which are equal so answer is A
Independent variable (IV): something the scientist can change.
Thus, in this case, the IV can be the weight of the person.
