Consecutive integers are integers that follow one another. For example, 2,3,4,5,etc.... are consecutive integers
So algebraically, consecutive integers follow the form x, x+1, x+2, etc...
Since the sum of two consecutive integers is 239, this means:
x%2Bx%2B1=239
2x%2B1=239 Combine like terms on the left side
2x=239-1Subtract 1 from both sides
2x=238 Combine like terms on the right side
x=%28238%29%2F%282%29 Divide both sides by 2 to isolate x
x=119 Divide
So our first number is x=119
So to find the next number, simply add 1 to it to get 119%2B1=120
Answer: So our two page numbers are 119 and 120
The first-serve percentage of a
tennis player in a match is normally distributed with a standard deviation of
4.3%. If a sample of 15 random matches of
the player is taken, the mean
first-serve percentage is found to be 26.4%. The margin of error of the sample
mean is 83.71%.
1/2 is equivalent to 2/4 because,
2(1/2) = 2/4
So as you can see if you multiply the numerator(top) and the denominator(bottom) by the same number, you get an equivalent fraction! In my example you can see that I multiplied both by 2.
