Xy = 50
x + y = 15
x = 15 - y
xy = 50
(5 - y)y = 50
5y - y^2 = 50
y^2 - 5y + 50 = 0
(y - 5)(y - 10) = 0
y - 5 = 0 or y - 10 = 0
y = 5 or y = 10
x + y = 15
For y = 5:
x + 5 = 15
x = 10
For y = 10
x + 10 = 15
x = 5
Answer: the numbers are 5 and 10.
Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:
<u><em>x-intercept</em></u>






<u><em>y-intercept </em></u>








So these are decmials of the accutal total so
.32=32%
what makes this question easy is that there are 200 members so to convert the percents into accutall numbers so like .32=32%=64 people (since 200 is 2 times of 100)
A. fiction of 31-40 compared to 21-30
fiction 31-40=.38=38%=76 readers
fiction 21-30=.32=32%=64 readers
76-64=12
A is FALSE
B. so we want to know how many people are 31-40 and prefer fiction
so .38=38% and 38% of 200=76
B is FALSE
C 43 members are 21-30
so we look at the total row for the 21-30 people and see that .43 or 43% or 86 people are in the 21-30 age group
C is FALSE
D. 140 members prefer fiction
look at the total column for fiction and see that .70 like fiction .70=70%=140 people
D is TRUE
so A,B,C are FALSE
D is TRUE
The picture in the attached figure
we know that
In similar triangles. The ratio of the lengths of the sides CS and CB must be equal to the ratio of the lengths of sides CR and CA. CS / CB = CR / CA
which can also be written as,
CS / (CS + SB) = CR / (CR + RA)
CS*(CR+RA)=CR*(CS+RA)
CS=2x+1
SB=6x
CR=7.5
RA=18
(2x+1)*[7.5+18]=7.5*[2x+1+18]
(2x+1)*[25.5]=7.5*[2x+19]
(51x+25.5)=15x+142.5
51x-15x=142.5-25.5
36x=117
x=117/36
x=3.25
the answer is x=3.25
