Let number of senators = x, then:-

number of representatives = 5x - 25  so

x + 5x - 25 = 515
6x = 540
x = 90  
number of reps =  515 - 90 = 425

so there are 90 senators and 425 representatives.

Solve for b:<br><br> b² = 8b + 84
levacccp [35]
B² = 8b + 84
b² - 8b - 84 = 0
b = <u>-(-8) +/- √((8)² - 4(1)(-84))</u> 
                       2(1)<u>
</u>b = <u>8 +/- √(64 + 336)</u>
                   2
b = <u>8 +/- √(400)
</u>               2<u>
</u>b = <u>8 +/- 20
</u>            2
b = 4 <u>+</u> 10
b = 4 + 10          b = 4 - 10
b = 14                b = -6
