2 consecutive odd integers.....x and x + 2.....the product means multiply....the sum means add.
x(x + 2) = 4(x + x + 2) - 1
x^2 + 2x = 4(2x + 2) - 1
x^2 + 2x = 8x + 8 - 1
x^2 + 2x = 8x + 7
x^2 + 2x - 8x - 7 = 0
x^2 - 6x - 7 = 0
(x - 7)(x + 1) = 0
x - 7 = 0 x + 2 = 7 + 2 = 9
x = 7
x + 1 = 0 x + 2 = -1 + 2 = 1
x = -1
there can be 2 answers for this....
(1) 7 and 9
(2) -1 and 1
Answer:
N = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
n + 5(n-1) = 7
n + 5n - 5 = 7
6n - 5 = 7
6n = 12
n = 2

PLZZ MARK BRAINLIEST!!!
6÷40.5= $6.75 per hour
8÷54= $6.75 per hour
y= 6.75x
1 inch= 12 miles
Multiply 6 1/2 inches by total number of miles per 1 inch (12).
= 6 1/2 * 12
convert to improper fraction
= 13/2 * 12
multiply numerators
= (13*12)/2
multiply in parentheses
= 156/2
divide
= 78 miles
ANSWER: (A) 78 miles
Hope this helps! :)
