Chapter 9: Q. 9.69 (page 909)

The product of two consecutive odd integers is 99. Find the integers.

Short Answer

Expert verified

Two consecutive odd integers whose product is 99 are 9, 11 and -9,-11.

Step by step solution

01

Step 1. Form a quadratic equation.

It is given that the product of two consecutive odd integers is 99.

Let nbe the first odd integer and n+2is the second odd integer. Then,

n(n+2)=99n2+2n-99=0

02

Step 2. Solve the equation.

Split the middle term.

n2+11n-9n-99=0n(n+11)-9(n+11)=0(n-9)(n+11)=0n=9andn=-11

03

Step 3. Determine the second odd integer.

For n=9,

n+2=9+2=11

Forn=-11

n+2=-11+2=-9

04

Step 4. Conclusion.

Two consecutive odd integers whose product is 99 are 9, 11 and -9,-11.

A rancher is going to fence three sides of a corral next to a river. He needs to maximize the corral area using 240feet of fencing. The quadratic equation A(x)=x(240鈭�2x)gives the area of the corral, A, for the length, x, of the corral along the river. Find the length of the corral along the river that will give the maximum area, and then find the maximum area of the corral.
