Let x = first number, and y = second number.
x + y = 40 (1)
x - y = 6.5 (2)
Rearrange (2)
y = x - 6.5 (3)
Sub (3) in (1)
x + (x - 6.5) = 40
2x - 6.5 = 40
2x = 33.5
x = 16.75 (4)
Sub (4) in (1)
16.75 + y =40
y = 23.25
x * y = 16.75 * 13.25 = 221.9375
The product is 221.9375
Answer:
1 < x < 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Inequalities of the type | x | < a , have solution of the form
- a < x < a
Given
2 | x - 3 | < 4 ( divide both sides by 2 )
| x - 3 | < 2 , then
- 2 < x - 3 < 2 ( add 3 to each interval )
1 < x < 5
