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

Mathematics
1 answer:
vredina [299]3 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.

HELP WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST FOR ANSWER QUICKLY PLEASE HELP
Helen [10]

Answer:

We have sinθ = 12/13

The  method here is to figure out the value of θ

Using a calculator sin^(-1)(12/13) =67.38°

67.38° is in quadrant 1  so we must substract 67.38° from 180° wich is π

  • 180-67.38= 112.61° ⇒ θ= 112.61°

Now time to calculate cos2θ and cosθ using a calculator

  • cosθ = -5/13
  • cos2θ =  -0.7

The values we got make sense since θ is in quadrant 2 and 2θ in quadrant 3

Let x = larger odd integer

  then (x-2) is the smaller odd integer

 

Translate:

   "sum of two consecutive odd integers is 80"    means   (x-2) + x = 80

 

 2x -2 - 80

  2x = 82

   x = 41
