Answer:

The aprox, numbers:

4.1633 and 8.3266

Step-by-step explanation:

a = 2b

a² - b² = 52

then:

(2b)² - b² = 52

4b² - b² = 52

3b² = 52

b² = 52/3

b² = 17.333

√b² = √17.333

b = 4.1633 aprox.

a = 2b

a = 2*4.1633

a = 8.3266

Check:

8.3266² - 4.1633² = 52

69.333 - 17.333 = 52

Beth has 250 comic books in her collection. She begins to sell 20 of them each week. Martin has 80 comic books in his collection

guapka [62]

Answer:

250 - 20 < 80 + 15x

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

Beth has 250 books and 20 books sold each week

While on the other hand, Martin has 80 books and sell 15 books each week

Let us assume each week be x

Now the equations are

Beth 250 - 20x

Martin 80 + 15 x

Now the inequality would be

250 - 20 < 80 + 15x
