If the product of two positive integers is 180 and the larger number is 5 times the smaller number, what are the numbers

1 answer:

7 0

Let the smaller number be x
The bigger number is 5x

5x(x) = 180
5x² = 180
x² = 180÷5
x²=36
x=√36
x = 6

x=6
5x = 6 x 5
5x = 30

So the two numbers are 6 and 30

What is the approximate solution to the equation 2^t =38

timurjin [86]

2^t =38

take the log of each side

log ( 2^t) = log (38)

the exponent gets multiplies

t log (2) = log (38)

divide by log 2

t = log(38)/log (2)

t≈5.2479

Solve the system of equations using substitution.

faltersainse [42]

Answer:

( $\frac{1}{3}$ , 3 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

y = 9x → (1)

6x - y = - 1 → (2)

Substitute y = 9x into (2)

6x - 9x = - 1, that is

- 3x = - 1 ( divide both sides by - 3 )

x = $\frac{1}{3}$

Substitute x = $\frac{1}{3}$ into (1) for corresponding value of y

y = 9 × $\frac{1}{3}$ = 3

Solution is ( $\frac{1}{3}$ , 3 )
