Let x be the first odd number.
Second odd number will be x+2
Proof:
If 3 (was) the first odd number, 3+2 would be the next which is 5.
So,
(x) (x+2) = 99
xsquare + 2x = 99
xsquare +2x - 99 = 0
xsquare +11x - 9x -99 = 0
x(x +11) -9(x + 11) = 0
(x+11) (x-9) = 0
So the two odd numbers were 9 and 11
Answer:
x = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello!
We can solve for x by expanding the parentheses and isolating x.
<h3>Solve for x</h3>
- 3x - 2(2x - 5) = 2(x + 3)-8
- 3x - 4x + 10 = 2x + 6 - 8
- -x + 10 = 2x - 2
- 10 = 3x - 2
- 12 = 3x
- x = 4
The value of x is 4.

Answer:
B 2/6
Step-by-step explanation:
2 of the 6 possible outcomes are ones that are of interest. A "fair" die means the mutually-exclusive outcomes have equal probability, so ...
P(4 or 5) = P(4) +P(5) = 1/6 + 1/6 = 2/6
