Answer:
The pairs are (13,15) and (-15,-13).
Step-by-step explanation:
If n is an odd integer, the very next odd integer will be n+2.
n+1 is even (so we aren't using this number)
The sum of the squares of (n) and (n+2) is 394.
This means
(n)^2+(n+2)^2=394
n^2+(n+2)(n+2)=394
n^2+n^2+4n+4=394 since (a+b)(a+b)=a^2+2ab+b^2
Combine like terms:
2n^2+4n+4=394
Subtract 394 on both sides:
2n^2+4n-390=0
Divide both sides by 2:
n^2+2n-195=0
Now we need to find two numbers that multiply to be -195 and add up to be 2.
15 and -13 since 15(-13)=-195 and 15+(-13)=2
So the factored form is
(n+15)(n-13)=0
This means we have n+15=0 and n-13=0 to solve.
n+15=0
Subtract 15 on both sides:
n=-15
n-13=0
Add 13 on both sides:
n=13
So if n=13 , then n+2=15.
If n=-15, then n+2=-13.
Let's check both results
(n,n+2)=(13,15)
13^2+15^2=169+225=394. So (13,15) looks good!
(n,n+2)=(-15,-13)
(-15)^2+(-13)^2=225+169=394. So (-15,-13) looks good!
The answer is b, since that's the only other function there that involves using absolute value
30 is the old value and 55 is the new value. In this case we have a positive change (increase) of 83.33333333 percent because the new value is greater than the old value. Using this tool you can find the percent increase for any value.
Answer:
$11.10 per gallon.
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 4 quarts in a gallon so the cost of a gallon of oil currently is 1.85×4=$7.40
If the gallon price of oil goes up 50% then our answer is: 7.40×
=
=11.1
The price of oil in March will be $11.10 per gallon.
