Answer:

-5\:\mathrm{and}\: 11

Step-by-step explanation:

We can write the following system of equations:

\begin{cases}x+y=6\\x-y=16\\\end{cases}

Adding both equations together, we isolate x and get:

2x=22,\: x=11

Plugging x=11 in any of the equations, we can solve for y:

11+y=6,\: y=-5

Verify that the solution pair (11, -5) works \checkmark

Therefore, the two numbers are \fbox{$-5\:\mathrm{and}\: 11$}.

Evaluate the following equation: integral from 3 to infinity: 1/(x-2)^(3/2) dx
Bond [772]

The formula in solving the integral of the infinity of 3 is  ∫3<span>∞?</span>(1<span>)÷((</span>x−2<span><span>)<span><span>(3/</span><span>2)</span></span></span>)</span><span>dx</span>

Substitute the numbers given then solve

limn→inf∫3n(1/((n−2)(3/2))dn

limn→inf[−2/(n−2−−−−−√)−(−2/3−2−−−−√)

=0+2=2

 

Solve for the integral of 2 when 2 is approximate to 0. Transpose 2 from the other side to make it -2

∫∞3(x−2)−3/2dx=(x−2)−1/2−1/2+C

(x−2)−1/2=1x−2−−−−√

0−(3−2)−1/2−1/2=2
