The sum of two positive numbers is 5 times their difference.

X + Y = 5 ( X - Y)
X + Y = 5X - 5Y
-4X = -6Y
4X = 6Y
X = 6/4 = 3/2
Y = 4/6 = 2/3

The ratio of the larger number to the smallest number is 3/2

Use the cubic model y = 5a3 - 2a2 + a - 45 to find the value of y when x = 4.
Naddik [55]

Assuming 5a3 equals 5a^3, and the same for everything else, you would plug in 4 for a, so 5(4)^3 - 2(4)^2 + 4 - 45, which equals 247.
