Divide 56 by 2 and you get 28,therefore 28 chips per box
Answer:
11, 13
Step-by-step explanation:
an odd number can be represented by 2n+1
since they are consecutive, the larger odd number will be 2n + 1 + 2
now,
2(2n+3) = 2n + 1 +15
solving this eqn, we get n = 5
so the two numbers are (2n+1) = 11 and 11+2= 13
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The difference of the rational and and irrational number is always an irrational number.
Correct choice is B
Make a substitution:
Then the system becomes
![\begin{cases}\dfrac{2\sqrt[3]{u}}{u-v}+\dfrac{2\sqrt[3]{u}}{u+v}=\dfrac{81}{182}\\\\\dfrac{2\sqrt[3]{v}}{u-v}-\dfrac{2\sqrt[3]{v}}{u+v}=\dfrac1{182}\end{cases}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cbegin%7Bcases%7D%5Cdfrac%7B2%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7Bu%7D%7D%7Bu-v%7D%2B%5Cdfrac%7B2%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7Bu%7D%7D%7Bu%2Bv%7D%3D%5Cdfrac%7B81%7D%7B182%7D%5C%5C%5C%5C%5Cdfrac%7B2%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7Bv%7D%7D%7Bu-v%7D-%5Cdfrac%7B2%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7Bv%7D%7D%7Bu%2Bv%7D%3D%5Cdfrac1%7B182%7D%5Cend%7Bcases%7D)
Simplifying the equations gives
![\begin{cases}\dfrac{4\sqrt[3]{u^4}}{u^2-v^2}=\dfrac{81}{182}\\\\\dfrac{4\sqrt[3]{v^4}}{u^2-v^2}=\dfrac1{182}\end{cases}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cbegin%7Bcases%7D%5Cdfrac%7B4%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7Bu%5E4%7D%7D%7Bu%5E2-v%5E2%7D%3D%5Cdfrac%7B81%7D%7B182%7D%5C%5C%5C%5C%5Cdfrac%7B4%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7Bv%5E4%7D%7D%7Bu%5E2-v%5E2%7D%3D%5Cdfrac1%7B182%7D%5Cend%7Bcases%7D)
which is to say,
![\dfrac{4\sqrt[3]{u^4}}{u^2-v^2}=\dfrac{81\times4\sqrt[3]{v^4}}{u^2-v^2}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cdfrac%7B4%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7Bu%5E4%7D%7D%7Bu%5E2-v%5E2%7D%3D%5Cdfrac%7B81%5Ctimes4%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7Bv%5E4%7D%7D%7Bu%5E2-v%5E2%7D)
![\implies\sqrt[3]{\left(\dfrac uv\right)^4}=81](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cimplies%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7B%5Cleft%28%5Cdfrac%20uv%5Cright%29%5E4%7D%3D81)
Substituting this into the new system gives
![\dfrac{4\sqrt[3]{v^4}}{(\pm27v)^2-v^2}=\dfrac1{182}\implies\dfrac1{v^2}=1\implies v=\pm1](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cdfrac%7B4%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7Bv%5E4%7D%7D%7B%28%5Cpm27v%29%5E2-v%5E2%7D%3D%5Cdfrac1%7B182%7D%5Cimplies%5Cdfrac1%7Bv%5E2%7D%3D1%5Cimplies%20v%3D%5Cpm1)
Then
(meaning two solutions are (7, 13) and (-7, -13))
