Using algebra...
n and n+2 are the integers
n*(n+2)=288
n^2+2n=288
n^2+2n-288=0
288=2*2*2*2*2*3*3=(2*2*2*2)*(2*3*3)=16*18 and 18-16=2
factor
(n+18)(n-16)=0
n+18=0
n=-18
n+2=-16
this is one solution
n-16=0
n=16
n+2=18

this is another solution
as you can see, it's just a matter of factoring
288

using arithmetic...
√288=16.97≈17

16 and 18 are the integers (as well as -16 and -18)

larisa [96]

The total pounds of shrimp they catch is 9.625 pounds

<h3>Sum of values and decimals</h3>

Decimal number are numbers that has decimal points. Given the following information;

The total shrimp Spencer catch = 2 pounds

The total shrimp Jaclyn catch = 3.25 pounds

The total shrimp Ayden catch = 4.375 pounds

Determine the total pounds of shrimp they catch

Total shrimp = 2 + 3.25 + 4.375

Total shrimp = 9.625 pounds

Hence the total pounds of shrimp they catch is 9.625 pounds

Write the equation of a line that is parallel to {y=0.6x+3}y=0.6x+3y, equals, 0, point, 6, x, plus, 3 and that passes through th
Dominik [7]

y = 0.6x - 3.2  
The general form of the desired equation is 
y = mx + b
 where
 m = slope of the line
 b = y intercept of the line 
 If two lines are parallel, their slopes will be the same, Since the slope of the
given line "y = 0.6x +3" is 0.6, that will also be the slope of the desired line.
So our equation becomes:
 y = 0.6x + b 
 Now we can substitute the x and y value of the desired point we want the new line to pass through and find b. So
 y = 0.6x + b
 -5 = 0.6(-3) + b
 -5 = -1.8 + b
 -3.2 = b 
 So the desired equation is now 
y = 0.6x - 3.2

Wittaler [7]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

A soccer field is a rectangle 60 meters wide and 110 meters long. The coach asks players to run from one corner of the grass field to the opposite corner. The path from one corner of the grass field to the opposite corner is the diagonal of the rectangular field.

The width, the length and the diagonal of the rectangular field form right triangle. By the Pythagorean theorem,

\text{Diagonal}^2=\text{Width}^2+\text{Length}^2\\ \\\text{Diagonal}^2=60^2+110^2\\ \\\text{Diagonal}^2=3,600+12,100\\ \\\text{Diagonal}^2=15,700\\ \\\text{Diagonal}=\sqrt{15,700}\approx 125\text{ yd}
