Answer:

The two integers you are finding is 21 and 23.

x² + y² = 970

970 / 2 = 485 ( divide it to two because we are finding two integers )

√ 485 = 22.022715546 or when rounded off, 22 ( square root because we are finding squares )

It means, the answers are near the number 22.

I found out 21 and 23

21 and 23 is two consecutive odd integers

Let x = 21

Let y = 23

x² + y² = 970

( 21 )² + ( 23 )² = 970

= 441 + 529

= 970

Answer:

21, 23 and -21, 23

Step-by-step explanation:

The difference between two consecutive odd numbers is 2.

Let the smaller number be x. Then, the larger number is x + 2.

Now add their squares and set it equal to 970. Then  solve for x.

smaller number: x

larger number: x + 2

sum of the squares of the two numbers: x^2 + (x + 2)^2

equation: x^2 + (x + 2)^2 = 970

Solution of the equation:

x^2 + (x + 2)^2 = 970

Expand the square of the binomial:

x^2 + x^2 + 4x + 4 = 970

Combine like terms on the left side:

2x^2 + 4x + 4 = 970

Subtract 970 from both sides:

2x^2 + 4x - 966 = 0

Divide both sides by 2:

x^2 + 2x - 483 = 0

Now we need to factor the binomial. We need two number whose sum is 2 and whose product is -483. Look at 483. It is not divisible by 2, but it is divisible by 3.

483/3 = 161

161 is divisible by 7.

161/7 = 23

23 is prime, so the prime factorization of 483 is

483 = 3 * 7 * 23

Notice that 3 * 7 = 21, so

483 = 21 * 23

Use -21 and 23:

-21 + 23 = 2

-21 * 23 = -483

x^2 + 2x - 483 factors into (x - 21)(x + 23)

Now we continue solving the equation.

x^2 + 2x - 483 = 0

(x - 21)(x + 23) = 0

x - 21 = 0 or x + 23 = 0

x = 21 or x = -23

We let x equal the smaller of the two integers, so now we add 2 to find the second integer.

x = 21; x + 2 = 23

x = -23; x + 2 = -21

There are two sets of consecutive odd numbers that satisfy this problem.

21, 23

-23, -21

The problem did not state positive or negative consecutive odd numbers, so both solutions are valid.

Please help!!!
Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

Check bolded below

Step-by-step explanation:

1)radius = 10 in (given), diameter = 2*radius = 2(10 in) = 20 in

formula for circumference => 2πr => 2π(10)

circumference = 20π in

2)diameter = 12 ft (given), radius = 1/2*diameter = 1/2(12 ft) = 6 ft

formula for circumference => 2πr => 2π(6)

circumference = 12π ft

3)radius = 3 m (given), diameter = 2*radius = 2(3 m) = 6 m

formula for circumference => 2πr => 2π(3)

circumference = 6π m

4)diameter = 18 cm (given), radius = 1/2*diameter = 1/2(18 cm) = 9 cm

formula for circumference => 2πr => 2π(9)

circumference = 18π cm

If f(x)= 3x + 10x and g(x)=5x - 3 find (f+g)(x)
Illusion [34]

Answer:

18x-3

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)= 3x + 10x

g(x)=5x - 3

f(x)+g(x) = 3x + 10x + 5x - 3

Combine like terms

             = 18x -3
