The numbers are "x" and "y", therefore, we suggest this system of equations:
x-y=14
xy=1800
We can solve by substitution method.
x=14+y

(14+y)y=1800
14y+y²=1800
y²+14y-1800=0

Now, we solve this square equation:
y=[-14⁺₋√(196+7200)] / 2=(-14⁺₋86)/2
We have two solutions:

y₁=(-14-86)/2=-50     ⇒x=14+y=14-50=-36
y₂=(-14+86)/2=36    ⇒x=14+y=14+36=50

Answer: we have two solutions:
Solution1: The first number is -36 and the other number is -50
Soltuion2: The first number is 50 and the other number is 36

Which of the following is a correct conversion of 50 kg
wariber [46]

Answer:

c. 50kg = 50,000g

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to solve these following rule of three to see which of the following is a correct conversion of 50kg.

a)

Each kg has 1000g

So

1kg - 1000g

50kg - xg

x = 50*1000

x = 50,000g

Conversion a) is wrong

b)

Each kg has 1000000mg

So

1kg - 1000000g

50kg - x mg

x = 50*1000000

x = 50,000,000 mg

Conversion b) is wrong

c)

In a), we have already converted 50kg to g. We have verified that 50kg = 50,000g. So c. is correct

d)

In b), we have already converrted 50kg to mg. We have verified that 50kg = 50,000,000g. So d. is wrong
