Answer:

$\large{\textbf{The two numbers are: 26 and 49}.\\}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\large{\textup{assume the two numbers are $x$ and $y$.}}\\\large{\textup{The given sentences are written in mathematical terms as follows:}\\$$ x + y = 75 \hspace{25mm} (1)$$ $$ y = 2x - 3 \hspace{25mm} (2) $$ \\\textup{Substituting $(2)$ in $(1)$,}\\\begin{align*} & \implies x + 2x - 3 = 75 \\& \implies 3x = 78 \\& \implies x = 26\end{align*}\textup{Substituting $x$ in $(1), \hspace{5mm} y = 49$} }$

Which of the following sets contain all roots of the polynomial

Zarrin [17]

All these given roots are contained in option C.

The given equation is :

$9x^{3}+9x^{2}-4x-4=0$

$9x^{2}(x+1)-4(x+1)=0$

$(9x^{2}-4)(x+1)=0$

$9x^{2}-4=0,x+1=0$

$x^{2}=\frac{4}{9},x=-1$

$x=\frac{2}{3},x=-1$

Roots = $-1,\frac{-2}{3} ,\frac{2}{3}$

Hence these lie in between $(\frac{-3}{2} ,\frac{3}{2})$

To start, the first thing you need to know is that when you add decimals, you must line the decimal up, meaning, if you were adding 2.7+4.1, you have to make sure 2 is lined up with 4, and 7 is lined up with 1 so that the decimals align. Then, you add straight down from right to left and you get 6.8 as your answer.
