Hello from MrBillDoesMath!
Answer:
3,8
Discussion:
Let "n" and "p" be the two positive integers. Then
n = p - 5 (*)
and
np = 24 (**)
Substituting (*) in (**) gives
np = 24 => as p = n+5
n(n+5) = 24 =>
n^2 + 5n - 24 = 0 => factor polynomial (n+8)(n-3)
So n = 3 or -8 but as n is positive, n = 3 Then p = n + 5 = 8
Check:
Is n (3) 5 less than p (8). Yes
Does np = 3 *8 24. Yes
Thank you,
MrB
$16 per month can be changed to 16m where m represents months.
The $2 per Pilates class can be 2p where p represents Pilates classes.
An equation of y = 16m + 2p can be set up, where y represents how much McKenna is charged total for gym membership ($52)
52 = 16m + 2p
We know that McKenna attended 12 Pilates classes, and we also know that McKenna attended 1 month, so we plug this in:
52 = 16(1) + 2(12) (simplify)
52 = 16 + 24 (add 24)
52 = 40
Since this is not equal, $52 is not the correct amount to be charged.
