Hey You!
The two positive numbers are: 12 and 8.
They are both positive numbers, have a difference of 4, and a product of 96. :)
Answer: you bought 9 burgers and 16 tacos
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of burgers that you bought.
Let y represent the number of tacos that you bought.
You buy a total of 25 burgers and tacos. It means that
x + y = 25
The burgers cost $3.50 each and the tacos cost $2.25 each. The total cost of the burgers and tacos that you bought is $67.50. It means that
3.5x + 2.25y = 67.5- - - - - - - - - - - - 1
Substituting x = 25 - y into 1, it becomes
3.5(25 - y) + 2.25y = 67.5
87.5 - 3.5y + 2.25y = 67.5
- 3.5y + 2.25y = 67.5 - 87.5
- 1.25y = - 20
y = - 20/ - 1.25
y = 16
x = 25 - y = 25 - 16
x = 9
We have 20% and 60% solutions and need 80 ml of 50%
A) x + y = 80
B) .20x + .60y = (80 * .5)
Multiplying A) by -.2
A) -.2x -.2y = -16 Then adding this to B) we get
.4y = 24
y = 60 ml of 60%
x = 20 ml fo 20%
