Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
If we let x represent one of the numbers, then you want ...
x(58 -x) = 201.25
x² -58x +201.25 = 0 . . . . . put in standard form
(x² -58x +29²) +201.25 -29² = 0 . . . . complete the square
(x -29)² -639.75 = 0
x -29 = ±√639.75 . . . . . add 639.75 and take the square root
x = 29 ±√639.75 . . . . . . add 29
The two numbers of interest are ...
29 +√639.75 ≈ 54.2933
29 -√639.75 ≈ 3.7067
subtract 2 1/4 from 8 1/2
make fractions have same denominator
8 1/2 = 8 2/4
8 2/4 - 2 1/4 = 6 1/4 more pounds
Answer:
60

Hello!
We can put the x values in and see if we get y
Option 1:
Set A: y = 4x - 2
Do the first values
y = 4(-1) - 2
y = -4 - 2
y = -6
Look at the next one to be sure
y = 4(1) - 2
y = 4 - 2
y = 2
So the set A equation is correct we can look at set be now
y = x + 4
y = -5 + 4
y = -1
Try the next one to be sure
y = -2 + 4
y = 2
So the set B equation is also correct
The answer is the first one
Hope this helps!
