The answer is A,) (-2,-5) because I just did it in my CASIO calculator
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the numbers be x and y
2 consecutive even nos.
therefore y = x+2
twice of the first (2x) is 46 more than y
2x = y+46
Solving both the equations
x - y + 2 = 0
(-)2x - y - 46 = 0
____________
-x + 0 + 48 = 0
____________
x = 48
y = x+2
= 48 +2
= 50
Therefore the 2 nos. are 48 and 50
Hope this answers helps you
Answer:
there is one real solution
Step-by-step explanation:
use the quadratic formula. what is in the square root is called the discriminant.
since it came out to 0 there is one real solution
Step-by-step explanation:
x2-8x-3x+24=0
x(x-8) 3(x+8)
(x-8)(x+8)
x-8=0 or x+8=0
x=8. x= -8
