Ответ:
8 and 10
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
+ =
Combine the fractions on the left side
+ =
= ( cross- multiply )
40(2x + 2) = 9x(x + 2) ← distribute parenthesis on both sides
80x + 80 = 9x² + 18x ← subtract 80x + 80 from both sides
0 = 9x² -62x - 80 ← in standard form
To factorise the quadratic
Consider the factors of the product of the x² term and the constant term which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term
product = 9 × - 80 = - 720 and sum = - 62
Factors are - 72 and + 10
Use these factors to split the x- term
9x² - 72x + 10x - 80 = 0 ( factor the first/second and third/fourth terms )
9x(x - 8) + 10(x - 8) = 0 ← factor out (x - 8) from each term
(x - 8)(9x + 10) = 0
Equate each factor to zero and solve for x
x - 8 = 0 ⇒ x = 8
9x + 10 = 0 ⇒ 9x = - 10 ⇒ x = -
However, x is an integer ⇒ x = 8
The integers are 8 and 8 + 2 = 10
