Whenever a problem says "one number" and "another number" we can substitute x and y. for this we have x=2y+1 and xy=1. since we know the value of x (2y+1) we can substitute it for the other equation to get (2y+1)y=10. simplify to get 2y^2+y=10. from here you can do a few methods to solve this, but the simplest in my opinion is by factoring. 

In order to factor it must be equal to 0, so we have 2y^2+y-10=0. We factor this and get y=5 (we also get y=-4 but it is an extraneous root). now we can plug that into either equation and find that x=2.

this means our two numbers are 5 and 2

serg [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

the ratio or fraction for this problem would be 1 (gold coin) : 25 (points)

If we want to find out how many gold coins he needs to get 200 points we need to divide 200 by 25.

200/25 : 8

if we want to check our answer do this

1:25

1 x 8 is 8

25 x 8 is 200

Richard is $15 overdrawn on his checking account. He writes a check for $7. What is the balance in his checking account now?​
Annette [7]
Since he’s already at -15, if he writes a check for 7 then he’s subtracting more from his account.
So, -15-7=-22
