Let x represent first number in pair and y represent second number. We can see that x numbers are increasing by 1 on each next pair. y numbers are square of 0,2,4,6 and 8
Knowing all of that let "n" represent the position of the pair starting from 0!
than we can write that the rule is:
(n,(2n)^2)
The answer is 2.35714285714!
hope this helps!!
Answer:
4 and 9
Step-by-step explanation:
let their ages be x and x - 5, then in 4 years their ages will be
x + 4 and x - 5 + 4 = x - 1 , and the product is 104, thus
(x + 4)(x - 1) = 104 ← expand factors on left using FOIL
x² + 3x - 4 = 104 ( subtract 104 from both sides )
x² + 3x - 108 = 0 ← in standard form
(x + 12)(x - 9) = 0 ← in factored form
Equate each factor to zero and solve for x
x + 12 = 0 ⇒ x = - 12
x - 9 = 0 ⇒ x = 9
However, x > 0 ⇒ x = 9
Thus
Their present ages are 9 and 9 - 5 = 4
