Step-by-step explanation:
I'm not sure what the equation would be, but its the number multiplied by two, and It keeps accumulating so maybe yx2?
Answer:
The jeweler made 9 necklaces.
The jeweler made 8 bracelets.
Step-by-step explanation:
x = number of bracelets
y = number of necklaces
17 = x + y
238 = 5x + 22y
Make one of the coefficients, x, the same.
17 = x + y
Multiply this equation by 5.
85 = 5x + 5y
Subtract the equations to get rid of x.
(238 = 5x + 22y) - (85 = 5x + 5y)
(5x - 5x) + (22y - 5y) = 238 - 85
22y - 5y = 238 - 85
17y = 153
y = 153/17 = 9
The jeweler made 9 necklaces. Substitute this back into one of the equations to find x.
17 = x + y
17 = x + 9
17 - 9 = x
x = 8
238 = 5x + 22y
238 = 5x + 22(9)
238 = 5x + 198
238 - 198 = 5x
40 = 5x
x = 40/5
x = 8
The jeweler made 8 bracelets.
One side of the rectangle is x=2, the other side is 2x-5
Add up all the four sides: (x+2) +(x+2)+(2x-5)+(2x-5)=54
6x-6=54
x=10
#3: suppose the first integer is x, then the second one is x+2
x(x+2)=255
x^2 +2x -255 =0
factor the quadratic equation: (x+17)(x-15)=0
x=-17, which is impossible, or x=15
so the two positive integers are 15 and 17
