The two numbers I will call x and y.
x + y = 31
x * y = 150

You then solve for one variable in either equation and substitute it into the other equation.

x + y = 31
x = 31 - y

Then you plug it in:
x * y = 150
(31 - y) * y = 150
-y² + 31y = 150
y² - 31y + 150 = 0            Then factor:
(y - 6)(y - 25) = 0
y - 6 = 0        y - 25 = 0
y = 6             y = 25

When you plug y into the original equations, it comes out that the two numbers are 6 and 25. You can check your work because 6+25 = 31 and 6*25 = 150. Hope this helps! :)

uysha [10]

Answer:

Limits for B scores

( 79,2 ; 92 )

Step-by-step explanation:

The interval we are looking for is between 6 % and 59%

p₁  = 6 %     p₁ = 0,06

As this point is at the right tail of the bell we better look for

p = 1- 0,06     p = 0,94

In z-table z score for 0,94062  is:    z₁ = 1,56      ( 0,94062 ≈ 0,94 )

Doing the same to find z₂ score for 59%  or 0,59

In z-table again

p =  0,59      

z₂ = 0,023

Now we know

1,56 * σ  = x₁ - 79

1,56*8,4 + 79 = x₁

x₁  =  92,10        or  x₁ = 92

And

0,023*8,4 + 79  = x₂

x₂ = 79,19         or    x₂ = 79,2

Vera_Pavlovna [14]
According to Vertical Line test, a vertical line only intersect the graph of a function at one point. Among the choices given, x = 4 is a vertical line. So this line cannot intersect the graph of a function at more than one point. The other three would apply. So the answer choices are A, C and D.
