Two positive consecutive numbers are represented by x and x+1. If four is added to the first number and two is subtracted from the second number, the quotient of the new numbers is 11/16
Determine the numbers algebraically.

- thank you in advance :)

x =first number

x+1 = second number

(x) + 4 = x + 4 = 1 ^ new number [first number + 4]

(x + 1) -2 = x - 1 = 2 ^ new number [second number - 2]

now, we resolve it:

we eliminate the denominator and do c.e.: 16x - 16 ≠ 0; 16x ≠ 16; x ≠ 1

5x + 75 = 0

x = - 15

so x + 1 = - 14

But what you ask are two positive numbers! Are you sure that you write correctly the question? Thank you

plants store their excess carbohydrate in the form of starch so that it could be used as energy source later on. the excess carbohydrate is converted into starch in the plastid i.e. chloroplast & this process occurs in the presence of sunlight. it is an insoluble polymer of glucose which gets stored in cell organelles named as amyloplasts. in some plants, starch is also stored in roots and embryos.
