Answer:

(a) (6, 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

The system of equations has one of them in y= form, so it lends itself to solution by substitution.

Using the equation for y to substitute into the first equation, we have ...

2x -y = 10

2x -(-1/2x +5) = 10 . . . . . substitute for y

2x +1/2x -5 = 10 . . . . . eliminate parentheses

5/2x = 15 . . . . . . . . . add 5, collect terms

x = 6 . . . . . . . . . . . multiply by 2/5

Using the equation for y, we have ...

y = -1/2(6) +5 = -3 +5

y = 2

The solution is (x, y) = (6, 2).

Find 2 positive real numbers that differ by 1 and have a product of 1

velikii [3]

A) x -y =1
B) x * y =1
B) y = 1/x

A) x -(1/x) = 1
Multiplying both sides by "x"
A) x^2 -1 = x
A) x^2 -x -1 = 0

Solving by the quadratic formula
x = 1.618 and
y = .618

Interestingly, the number 1.6180339... is called the "phi ratio" or the "golden ratio".

Find f if f′(x)=2x−3/x^4, x>0 and f(1)=2.

slavikrds [6]

$f'(x)=2x-\dfrac3{x^4}$
$\displaystyle\int f'(x)\,\mathrm dx=\int\left(2x-\frac3{x^4}\right)\,\mathrm dx$
$f(x)=x^2+\dfrac1{x^3}+C$

Given that $f(1)=2$ , we get

$2=1^2+\dfrac1{1^3}+C$
$2=2+C$
$\implies C=2$

so that

$f(x)=x^2+\dfrac1{x^3}$
