Answer:

The negative solution is -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x

x² - 16 = 6x

Equate the equation to zero (0)

x² - 6x -16 = 0

Factorize

x² + 2x -8x - 16 = 0

x(x + 2) -8(x + 2) = 0

Therefore,

(x-8) (x +2) = 0

x -8 = 0         or           x +2 = 0

x = 8             or            x = -2

The negative solution is -2

the sum of 2 numbers is 49. Twice the smaller number is 97 less than 3 times the larger number. What are the numbers?
ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

let the larger and  smaller number be x and y respectively

first condition

x + y = 49

second condition

3x = 2y+97

3x-2y =97

Multiplying first condition by two and adding both equations

2x + 2y = 98

<u>3x -2y = 97</u>

5x =  195

x = 195/5 = 39

putting the value of x in

x + y = 49

y = 49 -39 = 10

again

Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

10 years

Step-by-step explanation:

First, converting R percent to r a decimal

r = R/100 = 2%/100 = 0.02 per year,

then, solving our equation

t = 100 / ( 500 × 0.02 ) = 10

t = 10 years

The time required to

accumulate simple interest of $ 100.00

from a principal of $ 500.00

at an interest rate of 2% per year

is 10 years.
