The two numbers I will call x and y.
x + y = 31
x * y = 150
You then solve for one variable in either equation and substitute it into the other equation.
x + y = 31
x = 31 - y
Then you plug it in:
x * y = 150
(31 - y) * y = 150
-y² + 31y = 150
y² - 31y + 150 = 0 Then factor:
(y - 6)(y - 25) = 0
y - 6 = 0 y - 25 = 0
y = 6 y = 25
When you plug y into the original equations, it comes out that the two numbers are 6 and 25. You can check your work because 6+25 = 31 and 6*25 = 150. Hope this helps! :)
Trains depart after every 4 minutes.
Total time train takes to complete a circuit= 24 minutes
Evan sets off at 8:30 am, so he will be back at 8:54 am.
So time of trains coming in opposite direction:
8: 34 am
8:38 am
8:42 am
8:46 am
and 8:50 am
5 trains coming in opposite directions.
Now the trains started at 8:06 am from the stations are:
8:06 am
8:10 am
8:14 am
8:18 am
8:22 am
and 8:26 am.
So there are 6 trains started the circuit at 8:06 am.
Now total number of trains=6+5=11 trains
Answer: 11 trains will pass on complete circuit.
Domain: [-4,4] (left-to-right or x-values used)
Range: [-4,4] (down-to-up or y-values used)
Function: no
The better buy would be the 36 bottles of water for 4$ because it would be 9 bottles per dollar other than the 24 which is 8 bottles per every dollar. Hope it helps!
