Answer:

The 2 parts are 13 and 16.

Step-by-step explanation:

WE can set up a system of equations. If the 2 parts are x and y we have:-

x + y = 29

x^2 + y^2 = 425

From the first equation y = 29 - x, so substituting for y in the second equation:-:-

x^2 + (29 - x)^2 = 425

x^2 + x^2 - 58x + 841 = 425

2x^2 - 58x + 416 = 0

2 (x^2 - 29x + 208) = 0

We need 2 numbers whose sum is 29 and whose product is 208. Yhet are 13 and 16, so:-

2(x - 13)(x - 16) = 0

x = 13, 16  

So y = 29-13 , 29 - 16  = 16,13

Thus one number is 13 and the other is 16.

Answer:

13 and 16

Step-by-step explanation:

let the 2 parts be x and y, then

x + y = 29 → (1) and

x² + y² = 425 → (2)

From (1) → x = 29 - y → (3)

substitute x = 29 - y into (2)

(29 - y)² + y² = 425 ( expand factor )

841 - 58y + y² + y² = 425 ( rearrange into standard form )

2y² - 58y + 416 = 0 ← in standard quadratic form

divide all terms by 2

y² - 29y + 208 = 0

Consider the factors of 208 which sum to - 29

These are - 13 and - 16, hence

(y - 13)(y - 16) = 0

equate each factor to zero and solve for y

y - 13 = 0 ⇒ y = 13

y - 16 = 0 ⇒ y = 16

substitute these values into (3)

x = 29 - 13 = 16 and x = 29 - 16 = 13

The 2 parts are 13 and 16

A number, x, multiplied by 4 is subtracted from the difference of the same number and 65
Ipatiy [6.2K]
X - 65 - 4x.
3x - 65.
I assume that you subtract x times four (a number, x, multiplied by 4) FROM the difference of x and 65 (the same number and 65).
Hope this helps!

Answer:

2, 3, ,6 ,9. (YOUR ANSWER)

All numbers listed below!

15282 ÷ 1 = 15282

15282 ÷ 2 = 7641

15282 ÷ 3 = 5094

15282 ÷ 6 = 2547

15282 ÷ 9 = 1698

15282 ÷ 18 = 849

15282 ÷ 27 = 566

15282 ÷ 54 = 283

15282 ÷ 283 = 54

15282 ÷ 566 = 27

15282 ÷ 849 = 18

15282 ÷ 1698 = 9

15282 ÷ 2547 = 6

15282 ÷ 5094 = 3

15282 ÷ 7641 = 2

15282 ÷ 15282 = 1
