Let's x represents the first odd integer
The next consecutive integer would be represented as x+2.
So x and x+2 being multiplied together will give us 1443:
(x)(x+2)=1443
x^2+2x=1443
x^2+2x-1443=0
By solving the quadratic equation using the quadratic formula, x will equal to 37 and -39.
Since the problem says "integers", so I'm assuming two pairs of consecutive integers would be ok.
With that said you 1st pair will be: 37,39
Your second pair will be: -37,-39.
Answer:
White roses - 7
Red roses - 17
Step-by-step explanation:
Set up proportional equations
White roses = x
Red roses = 3x - 4
Set equal to 24
x + 3x - 4 = 24
4x - 4 = 24
4x = 28
x = 7
x is white roses, so there are 7
Plug x value into red rose equation
3(7)-4
21-4 = 17 red roses
Check
17+7 = 24
