Answer:

x=39

y=14

Step-by-step explanation:

x+y=53...(1)

x-y=25...(2)

(1)+(2): 2x==78

x=78/2

x=39

then

x+y=53

39+y=53

y=53-39

y=14

CALC- limits<br> please show your method

A. Factor the numerator as a difference of squares:

$\displaystyle\lim_{x\to9}\frac{x-9}{\sqrt x-3}=\lim_{x\to9}\frac{(\sqrt x-3)(\sqrt x+3)}{\sqrt x-3}=\lim_{x\to9}(\sqrt x+3)=6$

c. As $x\to\infty$ , the contribution of the terms of degree less than 2 becomes negligible, which means we can write

$\displaystyle\lim_{x\to\infty}\frac{4x^2-4x-8}{x^2-9}=\lim_{x\to\infty}\frac{4x^2}{x^2}=\lim_{x\to\infty}4=4$

e. Let's first rewrite the root terms with rational exponents:

$\displaystyle\lim_{x\to1}\frac{\sqrt[3]x-x}{\sqrt x-x}=\lim_{x\to1}\frac{x^{1/3}-x}{x^{1/2}-x}$

Next we rationalize the numerator and denominator. We do so by recalling

$(a-b)(a+b)=a^2-b^2$
$(a-b)(a^2+ab+b^2)=a^3-b^3$

In particular,

$(x^{1/3}-x)(x^{2/3}+x^{4/3}+x^2)=x-x^3$
$(x^{1/2}-x)(x^{1/2}+x)=x-x^2$

so we have

$\displaystyle\lim_{x\to1}\frac{x^{1/3}-x}{x^{1/2}-x}\cdot\frac{x^{2/3}+x^{4/3}+x^2}{x^{2/3}+x^{4/3}+x^2}\cdot\frac{x^{1/2}+x}{x^{1/2}+x}=\lim_{x\to1}\frac{x-x^3}{x-x^2}\cdot\frac{x^{1/2}+x}{x^{2/3}+x^{4/3}+x^2}$

For $x\neq0$ and $x\neq1$ , we can simplify the first term:

$\dfrac{x-x^3}{x-x^2}=\dfrac{x(1-x^2)}{x(1-x)}=\dfrac{x(1-x)(1+x)}{x(1-x)}=1+x$

So our limit becomes

$\displaystyle\lim_{x\to1}\frac{(1+x)(x^{1/2}+x)}{x^{2/3}+x^{4/3}+x^2}=\frac{(1+1)(1+1)}{1+1+1}=\frac43$

It takes an older pump twice as long to drain a certain pool as it does a newer pump. Working together, it takes the two pumps
