D. You multiply 3.75x1.5 :)
X(x+2) = 48
x^2 + 2x = 48
x^2 + 2x - 48 = 0
*Use quadratic formulae*
x = 6
Numbers are 6 and 8
<u>ANSWER: </u>
The values of x and p after solving given equations are 0.445 or
and 260 respectively..
<u>SOLUTION:
</u>
Given, two proportions are
=9 and 
We need to solve the given two proportions.
Let us solve the first proportion,
= 9

On cross-multiplication, we get
4
1 = 9x
4 = 9x
x = 
x = 0.445
Now, let us solve the second proportion 



On cross-multiplication, we get
p = 260
Hence, the values of x and p after solving given equations are 0.445 and 260 respectively.
