What two number adds to 10 but multiply to 16

2 answers:

8 0

Let 2 nos. be x & y

x + y = 10

x * y = 16

from 1st eqn, y = 10 - x

substituting in 2nd eqn

x * (10 - x) = 16

10x - x^2 = 16

x^2 - 10x + 16 = 0

(x - 8)(x - 2) = 0

x = 8 or x =2

y = 10 - 8 = 2 or 10 - 2 = 8

so the two numbers are 2 and 8

Answer:

2 gallons of pure alcohol

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of gallons of pure alcohol needed, and create an equation:

4(0.25) + x(1) = (x + 4)0.5

1 + x = 0.5x + 2

x = 0.5x + 1

0.5x = 1

x = 2

So, 2 gallons of pure alcohol should be added.
