Xy = -150
x + y = 5

     x + y = 5
x - x + y = -x + 5
           y = -x + 5

                                                       xy = -150
                                             x(-x + 5) = -150
                                         x(-x) + x(5) = -150
                                               -x² + 5x = -150
                                     -x² + 5x + 150 = 0
                       -1(x²) - 1(-5x) - 1(-150) = 0
                                  -1(x² - 5x - 150) = 0
                                               -1            -1
                                        x² - 5x - 150 = 0
                                        x = -(-5) ± √((-5)² - 4(1)(-150))
                                                                2(1)
                                        x = 5 ± √(25 + 600)
                                                         2
                                        x = 5 ± √(625)
                                                     2
                                        x = 5 ± 25
                                                 2
                                        x = 2.5 ± 12.5
                                        x = 2.5 + 12.5    or    x = 2.5 - 12.5
                                        x = 15          or          x = -10

    x + y = 5
  15 + y = 5
- 15      - 15
          y = -10
    (x, y) = (15, -10)

            or

    x + y = 5
 -10 + y = 5
+ 10    + 10
           y = 15
    (x, y) = (-10, 15)

The two numbers that add up to 5 and multiply to -150 are 15 and -10.

Wittaler [7]

Answer:

The Cost Price will be $19.99

Step-by-step explanation:

James

Sale Price = (100 - Discount Rate) x Cost Price

Let Y = Cost Price

By Putting the values in above equation:

$16.99 = (100 - 15) x Y

$16.99 = 0.85Y

Dividing the equation by 0.85, we get

Y = $16.99 / 0.85

Y = $19.99

The volumes of two similar figures are given. The surface area of the larger figure is given. Find the surface area of the small
frez [133]

Answer:

surface area of the smaller figure ≈ 1474.64 m²

Step-by-step explanation:

The figures are similar base on the question . The surface area and the volume of the larger figure is given while only the figure of the smaller figure is given.

To find the surface area of the smaller figure we simply use the ratios. That is the scale factors.

Therefore, they are similar figure the scale factor  can be represented as a:b.

The scale factor for volume is cubed.

volume of larger figure/volume of the small figure = a³/b³

4536/2625 = a³/b³

a/b = 16.5535451/13.7946209

Note that for two similar solid with scale factor a:b the surface area ratio is a²: b² (the scale factor is square)

16.55²/13.79² = 2124/x

273.9025/190.1641 = 2124/x

cross multiply

273.9025x = 403908.54840

x = 403908.54840/273.9025

x = 1474.6435261

x ≈ 1474.64 m²

The distance (d) in meters that an ant can travel varies directly with the amount of time (t) in hours it spends walking.assume
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

d = 3  meters

Step-by-step explanation:

d = rt where d is the distance t is the time and r is the constant of proportionality

d = 18t

Changing 10 minutes to hours

10 minutes * 1 hours / 60 minute = 1/6 hour

d = 18 * 1/6 hour

d = 3  meters
