Let those numbers be a and b

a+b = 25 -----(i)
ab = 154 -----(ii)

from (ii)
a = 154/b

by substituting for "a" in (i)

a + b = 25
(154/b) + b = 25
( 154 + b^2)/b = 25
154 + b^2 = 25b
154 + b^2 -25b =0

now, arrange the terms

b^2 - 25b + 154 = 0
b^2 - 14b - 11b + 154 =0
b (b-14) -11 (b-14) =0
(b-11)(b-14)= 0


now find the value for b

b -11 =0
b = 11
and

b-14=0
b = 14


b equals either 14 or 11

and a = 154/b
if b = 11 then, a = 154/11 = 14
if b = 14 then, a = 154/14 = 11


so, the value of a and b are 11 and 14.

so, those numbers are 11 and 14.

Find a basis for the orthogonal complement of the subspace of R4 spanned by the vectors. v1 = (1, 4, -5, 3), v2 = (4, 15, 0, 5),
Arlecino [84]

Answer:

W1 =  ( -75, 20, 1 , 0 )

W2 = ( 25, -7 , 0, 1 )

Step-by-step explanation:

attached  below is the remaining part of the solution

for a homogenous system of equation ; Ax = 0

x1 + 4x2 -5x3 + 3x4 = 0

-x2 + 20x3 -7x4 = 0         note: x3 and x4 are free variables

we can take x3 = 0 and x4 = 1 , hence ; x2 = -7

∴ x1 - 28 + 3 = 0 = x1 = 25

W2 = ( x1 ,x2, x3, x4 ) = ( 25, -7 , 0, 1 )

now lets take x3 = 1  and x4 = 0   hence x2 = 20 , x1 = -75

∴ W1 =  ( x1 , x2 , x3, x4 ) = ( -75, 20, 1 , 0 )

What is the difference? StartFraction x 5 Over x 2 EndFraction minus StartFraction x 1 Over x squared 2 x EndFraction StartFract
Troyanec [42]

The difference of the given fraction is expressed as \frac{x^2+4x-1}{x(x+2)}

Given the expression:

  • \frac{x+5}{x+2}-\frac{x+1}{x^2+2x} \\

Take the LCM of the fraction to have:

=\frac{x+5}{x+2}-\frac{x+1}{x(x+2)} \\=\frac{x(x+5)-(x+1)}{x(x+2)} \\=\frac{x^2+5x-x-1}{x(x+2)}\\=\frac{x^2+4x-1}{x(x+2)}

Hence the difference of the given fraction is expressed as \frac{x^2+4x-1}{x(x+2)}
