The product of two consecutive integers is 72. The equation x(x + 1) = 72 represents the situation, where x
represents the smaller integer. Which equation can be factored and solved for the smaller integer?
x2 + x - 72 = 0
O2 + x + 72 = 0
x2 + 2x - 72 = 0
2 + 2x + 72 = 0

Choose the correct slope of the line that passes through the points (1, -3) and (3, -5)

Kayla wants to find the width, ab, of a river. she walks along the edge of the river 65 ft and marks point c. then she walks 25 ft further and marks point d. she turns 90° and walks until her location, point a, and point c are collinear. she marks point e at this location, as shown. (a) can kayla conclude that δ and δ are similar? why or why not? (b) suppose de = 15 ft. what can kayla conclude about the width of the river?
