A) I would make the positive integer x and then form an equation.
x + 30 = x^2 - 12
x + 42 = x^2
0 = x^2 - x - 42 this can be factorised
(x - 7) ( x + 6) Therefore x = 7 or x = -6
Since the question asks for a positive integer the answer is 7.
B) two positive numbers x and y.
X - y = 3
x^2 + y^2 = 117
Use these simultaneous equations to figure out each number.
Rearrange the first equation
x = y + 3
Then substitute it into the second equation.
(y+3)^2 + y^2 = 117
y^2 + 6y + 9 + y^2 = 117
2y^2 + 6y - 108 = 0
then factorise this.
(2y - 12) (y + 9)
This means that y = 6 or y = -9 but it’s 6 because that’s the only positive number.
Use y to find x
x = y + 3
x = 6 + 3
x = 9
So the answers are x = 9 and y = 6.
Since we know what he earns hourly, and his sales, we can figure out his full gross pay for the week.
As so:
We can set up an equation like this:
<em>h</em> = hours
<em>s</em> = sales
9.60h + 5%s
Now, we substitute.
9.60(35) + 5%(230)
Next, solve.
336.00 + 11.50
$347.50
$347.50 was Glen's gross pay for the week.

Number 2 is the answer to you question
Imaginary, you cannot form the square root of a negative #
Answer:
10
Step-by-step explanation:
Utilize the proportions given to you. 3.3 is 1/2 of 6.6, and 3.7 is 1/2 of 7.4. That must mean that 5 is 1/2 of side h, making side h 10.
