Answer:

4 and 20

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of two numbers is 24.

One of the numbers is 5 times larger than the other.

Let x be the first number.

Let y be the second number.

x + y = 24

x = 5y

Put x as 5y in the first equation.

5y + y = 24

6y = 24

y = 4

Put y as 4 in the second equation.

x = 5(4)

x = 20

Solve for t if p≠q<br> (t+p)/q - q/p = (t-q)/p + p/q

german

Answer:

.. q T 0 = (q/p)a (q/p)a − (q/p)T−10 if p ≠ q and qT0 = 1 − T0/a if p = q = 1/2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose that there are two different solutions, p and q, in [a, b]. Thus p =g(p) q =g(q) p ≠ q The function g(x) satisfies the hypotheses of the mean-value ... that g(p) –g(q) = (p – q) g׳(t) Because g(p) =p and g(q) = q, the left side of Eq. (1-3) may...
