Answer:
<em>The answer is 13</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
Two positive and consecutive old numbers are x and x - 2.
=> x(x - 2) = 143
=> x^2 - 2x - 143 = 0
=> x^2 + 11x - 13x - 143 = 0
=> x(x + 11) - 13(x + 11) = 0
=> (x + 11)(x - 13) = 0
=> x = -11 (invalid)
or x = 13 (valid), the remaining number is 13 - 2 = 11
=> The two numbers are 11 and 13, and the greater number is 13.
Hope this helps!

The Multiplication Property of Zero.
It states "the product of any number and zero is zero". Even if there are more than one multiplier - it is still 0.
So 5 x 0 = 0
100 x 0 = 0
41 x 0 x 3 = 0
etc.
<span>2x+3y=3
</span><span>-3x-2y=8
3y=3-2x
-2y = 8+3x
y = 1 - 2x/3
y = -4 - 3x/2
</span>1 - 2x/3 = -4 - 3x/2
5 = - 3x/2 + 2x/3
5 = -9x/6 + 4x/6
5 = -5x/6
x = 5 * 6/-5
x = -6
No plug it in.
<span>2x+3y=3 ; x = -6
-12 + 3y = 3
3y=3+12
3y=15
y = 5
So </span>x = -6 and y = 5
I'm not sure how to give you solid proof, like an equation or something, but you can see that out of the four coordinates, two of them have the y-value of 4 and two of them have the y-value of 2. Also, there is 1.5 in between each x-value that is paired with the same y-value... if that makes sense. So for (0.5, 2) and (3, 2), there is 1.5 in between 0.5 and 3. I hope this helps! Sorry it's a bit of a weird answer
