One integer is 5 less than another and their product is 84. Find the integers.

Mathematics

andrezito [222]3 years ago
5 0

The first integer is going to be x and the second one is going to be y.

We now turn the clues into equations:

x = y - 5

xy = 84

The substitution method:

(y - 5)y = 84

y^2 - 5y - 84 = 0

(y+7)(y-12) = 0

y = -7, 12.

If y = -7, then x = -12.

If y = 12, then x = 7

11/2 cup of black beans provides 15% of potassium you need daily. You must get the remaining 2890 mg from other sources. How man
stepladder [879]
The 11/2 cup of black beans is extraneous info, you just need to know that it provides 15% of the potassium you need daily. With that info, you know that you need 85% more to fulfill your daily value. If we say x is the total amount of potassium needed, then we can set up the equation:
x * 0.85 = 2890
Then we can solve for x by dividing both sides by 0.85. The answer, then, is 2890/0.85 = 3400 mg.
