<u>Answer:</u>
<u>Explanation:</u>
We are given product of two consecutive odd integers is equal to 72.
Let one integer be x , then since these are consecutive and odd so the other integer will be equal to x + 1.
Their product is equal to 72. So,
x * (x + 1) = 72
=> 
=> is the required quadratic equation.
Answer:
1.25 minutes, or 1 minute 15 seconds
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that is speed is 0.4 pages per 0.5 minutes. This is 0.8 pages per 1 minute. If we divide 1/0.8, we get 1.25 or 1 minute 15 seconds.
Answer:
36 is 25% of 144
Step-by-step explanation:
25% means 25/100 or 1/4. Thus, 36 is 1/4 of 36*4 = 144
3x-9-5x = -7
combine like terms -9-2x = -7
add 9 to both sides
-2x = 2
divide both sides by -2
x - 2/-2 = -1
x = -1
