(x+5)/4=1/2
first get rid of the fraction
multiply both sides by 4
x+5=2
subtract 5
x=-3

(2x+1)/(4x-1)=2/3
get rid of the fractions,
multiply both sdies by (4x-1)(3)
(2x+1)(3)=(2)(4x-1)
distribute
6x+3=8x-2
subtract 6x form both sdies
3=2x-2
add 2
5=2x
divide by 2
5/2=x

The product of 2 numbers is -24 and their sum is -5. What are the two numbers and why are they the two numbers?
lana [24]

The numbers are (-8, 3) or (3, -8).

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Step 1: Given the product of the numbers are -24 and their sum are -5. Let the numbers be a and b. Form equations out of these details.

⇒ a + b = -5 ⇒ b = -5 - a

⇒ a × b = -24 -------- (1)

  • Step 2: Substitute the value of b in eq(1)

⇒ a × (-5 - a) = - 24

⇒ -5a - a² = -24

⇒ a² + 5a - 24 = 0

  • Step 3: Solve the quadratic equation for a.

a = (-5 ± √25 - 4 × 1 × -24)/2

  = (-5 ± √121)/2

  = - 16/2, 6/2 = -8 or 3

  • Step 4: For each value of a, find b.

When a = -8, b = -5 +8 = 3

When a = 3, b = -5 - 3 = -8.

morpeh [17]

To get their combined time, get the sum of Vega's time and Janice's

27.98\text{ sec}+25.679\text{ sec }=53.659\text{ sec}

Therefore, their combined time for their part of the relay is 53.659 seconds.
