Let's call the two numbers x and y. We can write a system of equations to describe the situation:
5x = 8y
x - y = 150
Let's solve the first equation for x:
x = 8y/5
Now we can use substitution to solve the system by plugging 8y/5 in for x in the second equation:
(8y/5) - y = 150
Simplify:
3y/5 = 150
3y = 750
y = 250
If y = 250, then x is:
x = 8(250)/5 = 400
The answer is 250 and 400.

Answer:
-7/10
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the slope of a line, you need to find the 
between two points. I will be using the points (-3, 5) and (7, -2).
= 
= 
= -7/10
Answer:
first one is square root
don't know the second tho
Answer:
6x + 2 ( x - 4) = 8 + 4 ( x + 2)
6x + 2x - 8 = 8 + 4x + 8
<em><u>Arranging</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>like</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>terms</u></em><em><u> </u></em>
6x + 2x - 4x = 8 +8 - 8
8x - 4x = 8
4x = 8
x = 8/4
x = 2
