Answer:
x = - 8, x = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the 2 equations
x² + y² = 100 → (1)
y = x + 2 → (2)
Substitute y = x + 2 into (1)
x² + (x + 2)² = 100
x² + x² + 4x + 4 = 100
2x² + 4x + 4 = 100 ( subtract 100 from both sides )
2x² + 4x - 96 = 0 ( divide through by 2 )
x² + 2x - 48 = 0 ← in standard form
(x + 8)(x - 6) = 0 ← in factored form
Equate each factor to zero and solve for x
x + 8 = 0 ⇒ x = - 8
x - 6 = 0 ⇒ x = 6
So the greatest common factor of 40 and 16 is 8
40/8 : 16/8
5:2
The simplest form of the ratio 40:16 is 5:2
Hope this helps!
The answer must be a whole number because for example how are you suppose to fit half a child on a bus that can hold 44 people when it already holds that amount.
It will always be a whole number because if there are several left over students they will be put in another bus with more empty seats.
