Answer:

23, 25

Step-by-step explanation:

let the first number be represented as A, since there are two odd numbers, the second number would be A + 2

A + A+2 = 48

2A + 2 = 48

2A = 48 - 2

2A = 46 ( divide both sides by 2)

A = 23

since we know the next number to be A + 2

= 23 + 2 = 25

the two numbers are 23 and 25

The dimensions of a rectangular building are given as a length of 12x + 24 feet and a width of 20x - 10 feet. Write the expressi

Ray Of Light [21]

<h3>The expression that represents the area of the building, in terms of x is:</h3>

$Area = 240x^2 +360x - 240$

Solution:

Given that,

Dimensions of rectangular building:

Length = 12x + 24 feet

Width = 20x - 10 feet

The area of rectangle is given as:

$Area\ of\ rectangle = length \times width$

Substituting the values we get,

$Area\ of\ rectangle = (12x+24) \times (20x-10)$

Multiply both

$Area = 12x\times \:20x+12x\left(-10\right)+24\times \:20x+24\left(-10\right)\\\\Area = 240x^2 -120x + 480x -240\\\\Area = 240x^2 +360x - 240$

Thus the expression that represents the area of the building, in terms of x is found
