Question

the product of two consecutive odd integers is 35.form the equation

Answer 1

Answer:

−7and−5 or +5and+7

Explanation:

Let the first number be 2n−1

∴

the second number must be 2n+1

We are told that the product of the numbers is 35 ∴(2n−1)(2n+1)=35

4n2−1=35

4n2=36

n2= 9→n=±3

Then, either, first number =(6−1)=+5

∴

second number =5+2=+7

or

First number =(−6−1)=−7

∴

second number = −7+2=−5
