The first number is 34 and the second number is 63
Equation:
89.50=2.35c+5.50d
If theres 22 dogs and cats in total you can plug in number less than 22 for c(# of cats) and d(# of dogs).
So we try pats numbers 8 cats and 14 dogs so
89.50=2.35(8)+5.50(14)
89.50=18.8+77
89.50=95.8
So pats numbers were wrong so we try different numbers
So i started pluging in numbers from under 22 so i got c is 10 and d is 12 lets try it with the equation
89.50=2.35(10)+5.50(12)
89.50=23.5+66
89.50=89.50 so it works the answer to how many number of dogs and cats is 12 dogs and 10 cats
The amount that'll be saved if the television was bought for cash is $1600.
Cash price of television = $10000
Amount paid through hire purchase will be:
= (20% × $10000) + ($800 × 12)
= (0.2 × $10000) + $9600.
= $2000 + $9600.
= $11600
The amount that could have been saved will be:
= $11600 - $10000.
= $1600

Answer:
-8
Step-by-step explanation:
If α and β are roots of x^2 +5x +a = 0, then we must have ...
(x -α)(x -β) = x^2 +5x +a
x^2 -(α+b)x +αβ = x^2 +5x +a
Then ...
α + β = -5
Together with the other relation between the roots, we have a system of equations in α and β.
Using the above to write an expression for β, we get ...
β = -α -5
Substituting this into the given relation, we have an equation for α:
2α +5(-α -5) = -1
-3α -25 = -1 . . . . . . eliminate parentheses
-24 = 3α . . . . . . . . add 3α +1
-8 = α
The root α is equal to -8.
Okay a,b,c don't make sense at all. but if I had to choose I'd go with A and B since the exact numbers are used
