Mathematics

A number is 2/3 of another number.  Both added together equals 50.

One of these numbers consists of three parts, and the other consists of two of those three parts.  So, there are 5 equal parts in total.

Thus we need to divide 50 by 5.  50 divided by 5 equals <u>10</u>.

The first number, which has three parts, is 30.  The second number, which as two parts, is 20.

I hope this makes sense to you.  :D  Good luck in all your studies!

The difference between two numbers is 9 and the product of the numbers is 162. Find the two numbers
fiasKO [112]
Let the no be X and Y

acc to ques....

x-y=9 .........1

xy=162 ..........2

substituting value from 1 in 2 we get;

x=9+y

[9+y][y] = 162

y^2+9y = 162

y^2 + 9y - 162=0

y^2 + 18y - 9y - 162=0

y[y+18] + 9[y+18]=0

[y+9][y+18}

y= -9.................................3


y= -18......................................4



case 1 :

y= -9

x = 9-9=0

case 2:

y= -18

x= 9-18 = -9

I have included a picture of the equation <br><br>​
Alchen [17]

Answer:

it's c , x= 1.5 or -4

2x^2 + 5x - 12 = 0

First factor the left side of the equation

(2x-3)(x+4)=0

Second, set the factors equal to 0

2x-3=0 or x+4=0

 +3  +3       -4  -4

2x=3           -4

divide both side by 2 and you get 3/2 which equals 1.5

x=1.5 or x= -4

creativ13 [48]

Answer:

  -89

Step-by-step explanation:

The first term of the sequence is a1 = -12.

The common difference between terms is ...

  d = -13 -(-12) = -1

The generic term is given by ...

  an = a1 +d(n -1)

Then the 78th term is ...

  a78 = -12 +(-1)(78 -1) = -12 -77

  a78 = -89
