Let one integer be x, the consecutive odd integer is x+2
reciprocals are 1/x and 1/(x+2)
1/x +1/(x+2)=24/143
make the denominators the same:
(x+2)/[x(x+2)] +x/[x(x+2)]=24/143
143(2x+2)=24(x)(x+2)
286x+286=24x²+48x
24x²-238x-286=0
use the quadratic formula: x=22 this doesn't work because 22 is not an odd number.
or x=-2.1666666666 (this is not an integer)
weird.
Answer:
Compare the cost for the each (smallest) unit.
Step-by-step explanation:
You can calculate the cost per unit
For example :
20 ounces of water of brand A cost 1.50
30 ounces of water of brand A cost 2
20 ounces of water cost 1.50/20 = 0.075 dollar per ounce
30 ounces of water cost 2/30 = 0.0677 dollar per ounce

D. 3 to 5
This is because if you simplify the ratio by dividing each number in the ratio by 4, therefore for every group of 5 birds 3 of them are parrots
