Answer: 48

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to write a system of equations:

The difference between two numbers is 29. Difference means one number (y) minus another number (x) equals 29.

y-x =29

If five times the smaller ( 5 times x , x is the smaller number because is the number to subtract) is subtracted from twice the larger, (2y)

The result will be one

2y-5x =1

Now, we have to multiply the first equation by 2, and subtract the second equation to the first one:

2y -2x = 58

-

2y-5x =1

__________

3x =57

Solve for x:

x =57/3 =19

Replacing the value of x on any equation:

y-x =29

y-19 =29

y = 29+19 = 48

48 (y)> 19(x)

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.

A polynomial function upper P left parenthesis x right parenthesis with rational coefficients has the given roots. Find two addi
mylen [45]

Given that a polynomial function P(x) has rational coefficients.

Two roots are already given which are i and 7+8i,

Now we have to find two additional roots of P(x)=0

Given roots i and 7+8i are complex roots and we know that complex roots always occur in conjugate pairs so that means conjugate of given roots will also be the roots.

conjugate of a+bi is given by a-bi

So using that logic, conjugate of i is i

also conjugate of 7+8i is 7-8i

Hence final answer for the remaining roots are (-i) and (7-8i).

The following equation defines f(x)=-3x-5 . If (-5,n) is an ordered pair of the function rule, what is the value of n?
ElenaW [278]

Given:

The function is

f(x)=-3x-5

(-5,n) is an ordered pair of the function rule.

To find:

The value of n.

Solution:

If (-5,n) is an ordered pair of the function rule, then the function must be satisfied by the point (-5,n). It means f(-5)=n.

Substitute x=-5 in the given function.

f(-5)=-3(-5)-5

f(-5)=15-5

f(-5)=10

We know that, f(-5)=n. So,

n=10

Therefore, the value of n is 10.
