Let one integer be x, the consecutive odd integer is x+2
reciprocals are 1/x and 1/(x+2)
1/x +1/(x+2)=24/143
make the denominators the same:
(x+2)/[x(x+2)] +x/[x(x+2)]=24/143
143(2x+2)=24(x)(x+2)
286x+286=24x²+48x
24x²-238x-286=0
use the quadratic formula: x=22 this doesn't work because 22 is not an odd number.
or x=-2.1666666666 (this is not an integer)
weird.
Answer:
y=4x+13
Step-by-step explanation:
Ig, hope it helps
In scientific notation, it would be 2x10^3.
An easy trick to help remember when it is a multiple of 10 is that you do the numbers that aren't zero (2) times 10 and the exponent is how ever many zeros there are after the other numbers (3).
Step-by-step explanation:
1. 3x + 4 = 19
3x = 15
x = 5
2. 7 + 2x = 15
2x = 8
x = 4
