Answer:
Two consecutive integers are of the form
x and x + 1
Their product is equal to 56
x(x + 1) = 56
Solve and find the two numbers x and x + 1. The above equation may be written as follows
x2 + x - 56 = 0
Factor and solve
(x - 7)(x + 8) = 0
solutions: x = 7 , x = -8
x= - 8 is not valid since the number sought must be positive. Hence
x = 7 and x + 1 = 8 are the two consecutive numbers.
Step-by-step explanation:
Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation :
7*x-4-(21)=0
Solve : 7x-25 = 0
Add 25 to both sides of the equation :
7x = 25
Divide both sides of the equation by 7:
x = 25/7 = 3.571
