Answer:
the two positive integers are x= 15, and y = 11
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the first integer be x
Let the second integer be y
from the problem we can decode the following equations
---------------------------- equation 1
-------------------------equation 2
substituting the value of x into equation 2, we have
expanding, we have
from this, y = 11 or y = -5.4
since our answer is a positive integer, we will have to pick the first value of y which is y = 11
substituting the value of y into equation 1, we have
hence x = 15
Therefore, we have x= 15, and y = 11
these are the two positive integers
EXPLANATION:
-To formulate an equation, you must first know what data the exercise gives us to locate them correctly.
data:
-6 that must be added to a number.
-four times a number that is equal to 4x
-a result that is equal to 50
Now with these data we formulate the equation:
if we solve the equation we have:
