The product of two consecutive numbers is 4 more than three times the larger. find the integer​

Mathematics
1 answer:
Stella [2.4K]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the first integer be x, then the next is x+1.

x(x + 1) = 3(x + 1) + 4

x^2 + x = 3x+ 3 + 4

x^2 + x - 3x - 7 = 0

x^2 - 2x - 7 = 0

Solving this does not give an integer so maybe there's something wrong with the question??

Is x=3 a function and or a relation?
ale4655 [162]
X=3 is a relation because there is no context for it to be a function. x is a variable, and there is no equation to support it. Therefore, it has to be 3.

Find the 52nd term of the arithmetic sequence -8 -12 -16
liq [111]

Answer:

a₅₂ = - 212

Step-by-step explanation:

The nth term of an arithmetic sequence is

a_{n} = a₁ + (n - 1)d

where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference

Here a₁ = - 8 and d = a₂ - a₁ = - 12 - (- 8) = - 12 + 8 = - 4 , then

a₅₂ = - 8 + (51 × - 4) = - 8 - 204 = - 212

ElenaW [278]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  yes

Step-by-step explanation:

A horsepower is on the order of 746 watts*, so 2 1/2 times that will be less than 2500. The motor can be used to drive the fan.

_____

* "horsepower" has several different definitions, depending on the application and the units system being used. All are less than 1000 W, so the above conclusion is valid in any case.

How do you do this? Please give explanation
Komok [63]

Answer:

  2, 1, 3, 4, 6, 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The rate of change of function f(x) on an interval [a, b] is defined as ...

  average rate of change = (f(b) -f(a))/(b -a)

For the function h(x) = 2^-x, this will be ...

  arc = (h(b) -h(a))/(b -a) = (2^-b -2^-a)/(b-a) = (2^-a)(2^(a-b) -1)/(b -a)

__

1. For the interval [0, 2], the average rate of change is ...

  arc = (2^-0)(2^(0-2) -1)(2 -0) = (1/4 -1)/2 = -3/8 = -0.375

  1 goes in the 2nd answer blank

2-6. For the other intervals, it is convenient to let a calculator or spreadsheet compute the values. The average rates of change are shown in the attachment.

Alonso went to the market with \$55$55dollar sign, 55 to buy eggs and sugar. He knows he needs a package of 121212 eggs that cos
Neko [114]

Answer: See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on the scenario in the question, the expression to calculate the number of boxes of sugar Alonso can buys will be:

= 2.75 + 11.50S ≤ 55

When solved further, this will be:

2.75 + 11.50S ≤ 55

11.50S ≤ 55 - 2.75

11.50S ≤ 52.25

S ≤ 52.25 / 11.50

S ≤ 4.54

He can buy 4 boxes of sugar
