Question

The product of two consecutive positive integers is 306, the quadratic equation to find the integers, if x denotes the smaller integer is $x^2$$+x-306=0$

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is A True

$\Rightarrow$ $x$ denotes smaller integer then, other integer will be $x+1$

According to the question,

$\Rightarrow$ $x(x+1)=306$

$\Rightarrow$ $x^2+x=306$

$\Rightarrow$ $x^2+x-306=0$

$\therefore$ We can see given equation in question is correct.
