40% of 85 is 34 so 85-34=51
51 is your answer
Well think of it like this. lets say your teacher made you do this problem -48 - 10. I would just act like 48 is not an negative and add 10. After that I would put the negative back. So the answer would be -58. :P
We can solve this by finding one of the numbers first
Let the smaller number be y.
Since these 2 numbers are consecutive odd numbers, the larger number should be 2 more than the smaller one (y+2).
Therefore,
y + (y+2) = 284
2y +2 = 284
shift +2 to the other side and turn it into -2
2y = 284 - 2
2y = 282
shift x2 to the other side and turn it into /2
y = 282/2
y = 141
Now we got the smaller number, which is 141, we can also find the larger number by adding 2 to it. 141+2 = 143,
Therefore, your answer is 141 and 143
The answer to this question is C. 11. (I am making a joke by mentioning the music disc C418 Music Disc Variation 11 from Minecraft. I hope you play or else you might not get the joke I implied.) Hoped this helped. (Also I am going for 10 Brainliest answers. I would greatly appreciate it if you chose mine as the Brainliest answer. Thank you 100 times in advance. :))
I believe the answer would be 24 square units
