The product of two consecutive positive integers is 56. Find the two integers

Mathematics
1 answer:
vredina [299]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Two consecutive integers are of the form

x and x + 1

Their product is equal to 56

x(x + 1) = 56

Solve and find the two numbers x and x + 1. The above equation may be written as follows

x2 + x - 56 = 0

Factor and solve

(x - 7)(x + 8) = 0

solutions: x = 7 , x = -8

x= - 8 is not valid since the number sought must be positive. Hence

x = 7 and x + 1 = 8 are the two consecutive numbers.

What is the probability of selecting a red card from a standard deck of 52 playing cardships that does not contain a joker?
Rasek [7]
We know that the deck of cards contain half red and half black cards or you can say we have 26 red cards and 26 black cards.
we have to find probability of red cards from a deck of cards
so,
probability (selecting red card) = \frac{26}{52}
                                                     = \frac{1}{2}

Probability ( selecting red card ) =  <span>\frac{1}{2} Answer</span>

(i) Write the expansion of (x + y)² and (x - y)². (ii) Find (x + y)² - (x - y)² (iii) Write 12 as the difference of two perfect
zaharov [31]

Answer:

1a (x + y)² = x² + 2xy + y²

1b. (x - y)² = x² - 2xy + y²

2. (x + y)² - (x - y)² = 4xy

3. 4² – 2² = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

1a. Expansion of (x + y)²

(x + y)² = (x + y)(x + y)

(x + y)² = x(x + y) + y(x + y)

(x + y)² = x² + xy + xy + y²

(x + y)² = x² + 2xy + y²

1b. Expansion of (x - y)²

(x - y)² = (x - y)(x - y)

(x - y)² = x(x - y) - y(x - y)

(x - y)² = x² - xy - xy + y²

(x - y)² = x² - 2xy + y²

2. Determination of (x + y)² - (x - y)²

This can be obtained as follow

(x + y)² = x² + 2xy + y²

(x - y)² = x² - 2xy + y²

(x + y)² - (x - y)² = x² + 2xy + y² - (x² - 2xy + y²)

= x² + 2xy + y² - x² + 2xy - y²

= x² - x² + 2xy + 2xy + y² - y²

= 2xy + 2xy

= 4xy

(x + y)² - (x - y)² = 4xy

3. Writing 12 as the difference of two perfect square.

To do this, we shall subtract 12 from a perfect square to obtain a number which has a perfect square root.

We'll begin by 4

4² – 12

16 – 12 = 4

Find the square root of 4

√4 = 2

4 has a square root of 2.

Thus,

4² – 12 = 4

4² – 12 = 2²

Rearrange

4² – 2² = 12

Therefore, 12 as a difference of two perfect square is 4² – 2²
