Find two consecutive numbers that cubes add up to 1,241

If the first of the two integers is , the next one is . So, the sum of their cubes are

So, we have the following equation:

By the rational root theorem, if this polynomial admits a rational root, it is a fraction where p divides 1240 and q divides 2 (i.e., q=1 or q=2). You'll have to go with a bit of trial and error here, because the standard formula for solving cubic equation is quite complicated.

Eventually, you'll arrive to p=8, q=1, and if you plug 8 into the equation you'll see that it is a solution. So, the two numbers are 8 and 9, in fact

i believe the answer to be 48

step-by-step explanation:

y-y1=4(x-x1)

step-by-step explanation:

this is point-slope form since you only have 4 as the slope it goes in place of m

hope this : )
