The correct option is B): "<span>Let x = 1st integer. Let x + 2 = 2nd integer.</span><span>"
Given that "The sum of two consecutive odd integers is 28."
Now the difference between two odd numbers is 2.
So this means that one odd number has to be greater than the other by 2.
Let the smaller number be 'X' therefore the bigger number will be 'x+2'
thus
x + (x+2) = 28
therefore,
x + x + 2 = 28
now we subtract "2" from both the sides
therefore,
2x = 26
now dividing throughout by 2 we get:
x = 13
therefore,
x + 2 = 13+2
= 15
therefore, the numbers are
13 AND 15</span>

Answer:
Rewriting p(x) as a product of linear factors: 
Step-by-step explanation:
The polynomial
has a known factor of 
We need to find other factors.
First we find quotient of
divided by 
The division is shown in image attached.
The quotient is: 
Now, factoring the quotient 

The other two factors are (x-2)(x+6)
So, Rewriting p(x) as a product of linear factors: 
i hope this helps! let me know if i got something wrong.
