Answer:

<u>2, 25</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the numbers be x and y :

  • x + y = 27
  • xy = 50

Rearrange the first equation so it is equal to one variable :

  • y = 27 - x

Substitute the value in the second equation :

  • x(27 - x) = 50
  • 27x - x² = 50
  • x² - 27x + 50 = 0
  • (x - 25)(x - 2) = 0
  • x = <u>2, 25</u>

Answer:

a + b = 27

=> a = 27 - b

ab = 50

So, (27 - b) x b = 50

27b - b^2 = 50

b^2 - 27b + 50 = 0

Solving, b = 25, 2

Hence,

Case 1: b = 25, a = 2

Case 2, b = 2, a = 25

Complete question is;

Many states run lotteries to raise money. A website advertises that it knows "how to increase YOUR chances of Winning the Lottery." They offer several systems and criticize others as foolish. One system is called Lucky Numbers. People who play the Lucky Numbers system just pick a "lucky" number to play, but maybe some numbers are luckier than others. Let's use a simulation to see how well this system works. To make the situation manageable, simulate a simple lottery in which a single digit from 0 to 9 is selected as the winning number. Any value can be​ picked, but for this​ exercise, pick 1 as the lucky number. What proportion of the time do you​ win?

Answer:

10%

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that To make the situation manageable, simulate a simple lottery in which a single digit from 0 to 9 is selected as the winning number.

This means the total number of single digits that could possibly be a winning one is 10.

Since we are told that only 1 can be picked, thus;

Probability of winning is; 1/10 = 0.1 or 10%

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following information :

Number of oranges Ramona needs to harvest in other to cover the cost of running the orange Grove = 2616

Average number of oranges each tree bears = 62

Oranges needed for charity donation = 360

Number of orange trees needed in the Grove :

Total number of oranges needed :

(Charity + running the Grove)

(360 + 2616) = 2976 oranges

Number of trees needed = 2976 / 62

= 48 trees

Number of trees needed ≥ 48
