Answer: the two numbers are 46 and 37

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Sum of two numbers = 83

Sum of two times the first number and three times the second number = 203

From the question :

Let the numbers = a and b respectively

a + b = 83 - - - (1)

2*a + 3*b = 203

2a + 3b = 203 - - - (2)

From (1) :

a + b = 83

a = 83 - b

Substitute a = 83 - b into (2)

2(83 - b) + 3b = 203

166 - 2b + 3b = 203

166 + b = 203

b = 203 - 166

b = 37

From;

a + b = 83

a = 83 - b

a = 83 - 37

a = 46

Solve the equation for x, where x is a real number (5 points): <br> 2x^2 + 15x + 4 = 0
vitfil [10]
To find the solutions to this equation, we can apply the quadratic formula. This quadratic formula solves equations of the form ax^2 + bx + c = 0
                           x  = [ -b ± √(b^2 - 4ac) ] / (2a)
                           x = [ -15 ± √((15)^2 - 4(2)(4)) ] / ( 2(2) )
                           x = [-15 ± √(225 - (32) ) ] / ( 4 )
                           x = [-15 ± √(193) ] / ( 4)
                           x = [-15 ± sqrt(193) ] / ( 4 )
                           x = -15/4 ± sqrt(193)/4
The answers are -15/4 + sqrt(193)/4 and -15/4 - sqrt(193)/4.

Help! Which step is incorrect!
monitta
Step (1) is incorrect. To divide by a number means to multiply by the reciprocal. In step (1) they did not convert the polynomial into its reciprocal.

A man wishes to keep some money in savings de-
Lisa [10]

Answer:

He needs to deposit N76800 now.

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount of money is compound interest after t years is given by:

P(t) = P(0)(1+r)^t

In which P(0) is the initial amount of money invested and r is the interest rate, as a decimal.

25% compound interest so that after 3 years to buy a car for N150000.

This means that:

t = 3, P(t) = 150000, r = 0.25. So

P(t) = P(0)(1+r)^t

P(t) = P(0)(1+0.25)^t

P(t) = P(0)(1.25)^t

150000 = P(0)(1.25)^3

P(0) = \frac{150000}{(1.25)^3}

P(0) = 76800

He needs to deposit N76800 now.
