The sum of two consecutive numbers is 723. FInd the numbers.

361 and 362

Step-by-step explanation:

a+b=723

b-a=1

b=1+a

a+1+a=723

2a+1=723

2a=723+1

2a=724

a=362

362+b=723

b=723-362

b=361

so b and a are 361 and 362 respectively

hence the consecutive numbers are 361 and 362

the answer is 240,241,242

Step-by-step explanation:

if the eqn of the parabola is f(x) = (x-4)(x+2), we need to mult. this out to find the coordinates of the vertex.

then f(x) = x^2 + 2x - 4x - 8, and f(x) = x^2 - 2x - 8.

one way in which you can find the vertex is to calculate x = -b / (2a).   here, that comes to

        )

x = = 1.   f(1) = 1^2 - 2(1) - 8 = - 9.   vertex is at (1, -9).

        2(1) 

find another point on the curve:   let x=0, for which y=-8.   then (0, -8) is on the curve.   plot the vertex and this point and draw a smooth parabola thru both.

hope this

i think the answer is fried chicken ; >
