Im having a bit of trouble with these:
1). Seven less than 4 times the square of a number is 18. Find the number.
2). Find two consecutive integers whose product is 56.
3). Find two consecutive positive odd integers whose product is 35.
I need help in understanding how to do these problems:
1. Tracy leaves for work at 8 A.M. traveling at 36 mph. Sarah finds that Tracy has forgotten her briefcase, so she leaves at 8:05 chasing after her at 50mph. At what time will Sarah catch Tracy?
2. Two jets leave St. Louis at 2 P.M...
