Larger is x
the other is called y
sum of squares is 394
x^2+y^2=394
one is 2 less that other
x>y so
y+2=x
subsitute y+2 for x

(y+2)^2+y^2=394
expand
y^2+4y+4+y^2=394
add like terms
2y^2+4y+4=394
divideboth sides by 2
y^2+2y+2=197
subtract 197 from both sides
y^2+2y-195=0
factor
(y+15)(y-13)=0
set each to zero
y+15=0
y=-15
impossible since it is stated that they are positive so get rid of this solution
y-13=0
y=13

find other
y+2=x
13+2=x
15=x


numbers are 13 and 15

Marina spent $13.50 at the grocery store. She bought pears, kiwis, and pineapples. Pears cost $0.50 each, pineapples cost $1.50
MArishka [77]

Answer:

Number of pineapples= 10

number of pears = 19

number of kiwis = 10 -2 = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of a pear = $ 0.50

Cost of a pineapple = $ 1.5

cost of a kiwi = $ 0.3

Let the pineapples = p

Number of pears = 9 + p

Number of kiwis = p - 2

The cost is

0.15 p + 0.5 (9 + p) + 0.3 (p - 2) = 13.50

0.15 p + 4.5 + 0.5p + 0.3 p - 0.6 = 13.50

0.95 p = 9.6

p = 10

A) Enter the corresponding values on the quadratic formula:
ollegr [7]

The answer is a = 0, b = -5, and c= 39.

<u>Step-by-step explanation</u>:

<u>step 1</u> :

A quadratic equation means that it should have at least one squared term.

<u>step 2</u> :

The standard form is ax² + bx + c = 0.

<u>step 3</u> :

The solution to the quadratic equation is usually written in the form

x = (-b ± √(b2 − 4ac))/(2a)

where a = coefficient of x^2

           b = coefficient of x

          c = constant term

<u>step 4</u> :

The given equation is -5x +32.

∴ The answer is a = coefficient of x^2 = 0

                           b = coefficient of x = -5

                          c = constant term = 39
