Product of two consecutive integer so this mean that x and y but y = x+1 than

x(x+1)=1332

x^2 +x -1332 =0  so bc. you get 36*37=1332 and 37x-36x=x so you can rewriting this quadratic factorized completlie 

x^2 +x -1332 = 0

(x+37)(x-36)=0

x+37=0

x=-37 so the larger integer result that will be 37

A jury pool consists of 27 people. How many different ways can 11 people be chosen to serve on a jury and one additional person
hichkok12 [17]

Answer:

208,606,320

Step-by-step explanation:

A jury pool consists of 27 people. 11 people be chosen to serve on a jury and one additional person be chosen to serve as the jury foreman

Total of 27 people. 11 people can be selected from 27 people in 27C11 ways

27C11= \frac{27!}{11!(27-11)!} =13037895

one additional person be chosen to serve as the jury foreman

after selecting 11 people , remaining  is 27 - 11= 16 people

Now 1 is selected from 16 in 16 ways

Number of different ways = 13037895 \cdot 16=208606320

10=ax-3b solve for x
Finger [1]
10 = ax - 3b

First, add 3b to both sides. / Your problem should look like: 10 + 3b = ax.
Second, divide both sides by a. / Your problem should look like: \frac{10 + 3b}{a} = x.
Third, switch sides. / Your problem should look like: x = \frac{10 + 3b}{a} which is your answer.

Steve can​ wash, fold, and iron a basket of laundry in two hours and prepare a meal in one hour. His roommate Mike can​ wash, fo
masha68 [24]

Answer: The absolute advantage in laundry is held by Steve while the comparative advantage in meal preparation is held by Mike.

Step-by-step explanation:

Absolute advantage is when an individual, firm or country can produce a good or service at a lower cost when compared to the other economic agent. When someone has absolute advantage, it means that the person uses fewer resources and spends less time in producing the good. Based on the explanation, Steve has absolute advantage in laundry since he spends two hours compared to Mike who uses 3hours.

Comparative advantage is when an individual, firm or government can produce a good or service with a lower opportunity cost when compared to the other person. Mike has a comparative advantage in the preparation of meal. It'll be better for Steve to focus his attention on laundry while Mike does the meal.
