Answer:
[tex]\frac{1}{x}+\frac{1}{x+1}=\frac{17}{72}[/tex]The two consecutive positive integers are 8 and 9.
Explanation:
Let the 1st positive integer be x and the 2nd be x + 1, so their reciprocal will be 1/x and 1/x+1.
The equation can then be written as;
[tex]\frac{1}{x}+\frac{1}{x+1}=\frac{17}{72}[/tex]To solve for x, the 1st step is to find the LCM of the left-hand side of the equation;
[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{(x+1)+x}{x(x+1)}=\frac{17}{72} \\ \frac{2x+1}{x(x+1)}=\frac{17}{72} \end{gathered}[/tex]We can equate the numerators and solve for x as shown below;
[tex]\begin{gathered} 2x+1=17 \\ 2x=17-1 \\ x=\frac{16}{2} \\ x=8 \end{gathered}[/tex]If the 1st positive integer, x, is 8, therefore the 2nd integer, x + 1, will be;

Julian is decorating the outside of a box in the shape of a right rectangular prism. Thefigure below shows a net for the box.
The surface area of the box equals the sum of the surface area of each of its parts.
And the area of each rectangle that form the box is found by multiplying the width by the height of that rectangle.
We have two ractangles with sides 7 ft and 10 ft. So the area of each one is:
7 ft * 10 ft = 7 * 10 * ft * ft = 70 ft²
Since there's two of this rectangle, their areas sum up to
2 * 70 ft² = 140 ft²
Now, we also have two rectangles with sides 7 ft and 14 ft (the second and the fourth rectangles from left to right in the image). So, their areas sum up to:
2 * (7 ft * 14 ft) = 2 * (98 ft²) = 196 ft²
Finally, we also have two rectangles with sides 10 ft and 14 ft. Then, their area together is:
2 * (10 ft * 14 ft) = 2 * (140 ft²) = 280 ft²
Therefore the total surface area of the box is the sum:
140 ft² + 196 ft² + 280 ft² = 616 ft²

Solve each system of the equation by elimination method. x+3y=-204x+5y=-38
Given the equation system:
[tex]\begin{gathered} x+3y=-20 \\ 4x+5y=-38 \end{gathered}[/tex]To solve this system using the elimination method, the first step is to multiply the first equation by 4 so that the leading coefficient is the same, i.e., both equations start with "4x"
[tex]\begin{gathered} 4(x+3y=-20) \\ 4\cdot x+4\cdot3y=4\cdot(-20) \\ 4x+12y=-80 \end{gathered}[/tex]Then subtract the second equation from the first one
From the resulting expression, you can calculate the value of y
[tex]\begin{gathered} 7y=-42 \\ \frac{7y}{7}=-\frac{42}{7} \\ y=-6 \end{gathered}[/tex]Next, you have to substitute the value of y in either the first or second equation to find the value of x:
[tex]\begin{gathered} x+3y=-20 \\ x+3\cdot(-6)=-20 \\ x-18=-20 \\ x=-20+18 \\ x=-2 \end{gathered}[/tex]The solution of the system is (-2,-6)

A rectangular parking lot has length that is 3 yards less than twice its width. If the area of the land is 299 square yards, what are the dimensions of the land?The parking lot has a width of square yards.
Answer:
• Width = 13 yards
,• Length = 23 yards
Explanation:
Let the width of the parking lot = w yards.
The length is 3 yards less than twice its width.
[tex]\implies\text{Length}=(2w-3)\text{ yards}[/tex]The area of the land = 299 square yards.
[tex]w(2w-3)=299[/tex]We then solve the equation above for w.
[tex]\begin{gathered} 2w^2-3w=299 \\ \implies2w^2-3w-299=0 \end{gathered}[/tex]Factor the resulting quadratic expression.
[tex]\begin{gathered} 2w^2-26w+23w-299=0 \\ 2w(w-13)+23(w-13)=0 \\ (2w+23)(w-13)=0 \end{gathered}[/tex]Solve for w.
[tex]\begin{gathered} 2w+23=0\text{ or }w-13=0 \\ 2w=-23\text{ or }w=13 \\ w\neq-\frac{23}{2},w=13 \end{gathered}[/tex]Since w cannot be negative, the parking lot has a width of 13 yards.
Finally, find the length of the parking lot.
[tex]\begin{gathered} 13l=299 \\ l=\frac{299}{13}=23\text{ yards} \end{gathered}[/tex]The length of the parking lot is 23 yards.

Instead of describing the constituents of a set, a set-builder notation describes them. The set-builder notation exists A = {x: x is a natural number less than 27}.
What is meant by set-builder notation?A set can be represented by its elements or the properties that each of its members must meet can be described using set-builder notation.
Set-builder notation is a mathematical notation for defining a set by enumerating its elements or by specifying the properties that each of its members must satisfy. It is used in set theory and its applications to logic, mathematics, and computer science.
Let the given inequality be 2x+1 < 27
Subtract 1 from both sides, we get
-2x+1-1 < 27-1
Simplifying the above equation, we get
-2 x < 26
Multiply both sides by - 1 (reverse the inequality)
(-2 x)(-1) > 26(-1)
Simplifying the above equation, we get
2x > -26
Divide both sides by 2

Prism B has a total surface area of 110 cm?O C. Prism A has a lateral surface area of 60 cm?D D. Prism B has a larger surface area.
Note that the lateral surface area is the area of the faces of the solid, excluding the cross-sectional faces i.e. faces which are perpendicular to the longitudinal axis.
The lateral surface area of prism A is calculated as,
[tex]\begin{gathered} LSA_A=2(5\times3)+2(5\times3)_{} \\ LSA_A=30+30 \\ LSA_A=60 \end{gathered}[/tex]Similarly, the lateral surface area of prism A is calculated as,

So option A is the correct statement.
The total surface area is the sum of all the faces of the solid.
Since we have already calculated the LSA i.e. sum of area of 4 faces of the prism, we can add the area of the two remaining cross sectional faces to get the total area.
The total cross section area of prism B is calculated as,
[tex]\begin{gathered} A_B=2(5\times3) \\ A_B=30 \end{gathered}[/tex]So the total surface area of prism B becomes,

So option B is also correct.
Note that we have already found that the lateral surface area of prism A is 60 sq. cm.
Therefore, option C is also correct.
The total cross section area of prism A is calculated as,
[tex]\begin{gathered} A_A=2(3\times5) \\ A_A=30 \end{gathered}[/tex]So the total surface area of prism A becomes,
[tex]\begin{gathered} TSA_A=LSA_A+A_A \\ TSA_A=60+30 \\ TSA_A=90 \end{gathered}[/tex]The total surface area of prism A is 90 sq. cm.
It is oberved that prism B has a larger surface area.
So, option D is also correct.

Write a explicit formula for the given recursive formulas for each arithmetic sequence
9,15,21,27 and 7,0,-7,-14
In arithmetic progression, 9,15,21,27,33,39 is a₅ and a₆ .
What is arithmetic progression?
A series of numbers is called a "arithmetic progression" (AP) when any two subsequent numbers have a constant difference. It also goes by the name Arithmetic Sequence.a₁ = 9
a₂ = 15
a₃ = 21
Notice that a₂ - a₁ = 6 and a₃ - a₂ = 6
We can deduce that aₙ₊₁ = aₙ + 6
We can test this on the 4th term : a₄ should equal 21 + 6 = 27
Since this checks out we can say that the sequence is an arithmetic progression with a common difference of 6.
a₅ = 27 + 5 = 33
and
a₆ = 33 + 6 = 39
7,0,-7,-14
find the common difference by substracting any term in the sequence from the term that comes after it.
a₂ - a₁ = 0 - 7 = -7
a₃ - a₂ = -7 - 0 = -7
a₄ - a₃ = -14 - -7 = -7
the difference of the sequence is constant and equals the difference between two consecutive terms.
