Let, the numbers be "x" and "y". Consider "x" as the triple digit number.
Now, according to the question,
x + y = 217..........................equation (1)

x * y = 642............................equation (2)

Now,
Taking equation (2),
x * y = 642
y = 642 / x..................................equation (3)

Now, Taking equation (1),
x+y=217

Substituting the value of y from equation (3), we get,

x+ \frac{642}{x} =217

\frac{x *x+642}{x} =217

x^{2} +642 =217*x

x^{2} +642 =217x

x^{2} +642-217x =0

x^{2} -217x+642 =0

x^{2} -3x-214x+642 =0

x(x-3)-214(x-3)=0

(x-3)(x-214)=0

Using zero product property,
EITHER,
           x - 3 = 0
                x = 3
OR,
          x - 214 = 0
                  x  = 214
Since, "x" is the triple digit number, x = 214.
Now,
Taking equation (2),
x * y = 642
Substituting the value of "x" in the equation, we get,
(214) * y = 642
y = 642 / 214
y = 3

So, the numbers are 214 and 3.

Kim's method of sampling the students in the given scenario is said to; It is not a random survey.

<h3>What is a random sample?</h3>

Random sampling is defined as a sampling technique whereby each sample has an equal probability of being chosen. This means that a sample chosen randomly is meant to be an unbiased representation of the total population.

In this question, we are told that Kim asked the first 50 kids to school in the morning about a question and used their responses to arrive at a conclusion.

Now, Kim's method is not random because it is biased as only those who came earliest were asked.

What’s this i forgot how to do it
Mumz [18]
X and y intercepts. So x intercept is where y=0 and y intercept is where x=0. Also positive or negative meaning where y>0 (positive) and where y<0 (negative). Use these hints to do it. If you can’t then just let me know...
