Question

Express 7square as the sum of two consecutive intezers

Answer 1

7 square is equal to 49

x+x=49
24+25=49

Answer 2

Answer:

7² is the sum of two consecutive integers

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the first positive number be = x

And the second consecutive positive number is = x+1

x + (x + 1) = 49

2x + 1 = 49

2x = 49 - 1

2x = 48

x = 24

∴ the first number 1 = 24

∴ the second consecutive number 2 = x + 1 = 24 + 1 = 25

Thus, 7 square = 24 + 25 (the sum of two consecutive integers.)
