Let's call the two numbers x and y. We can write a system of equations to describe the situation:
5x = 8y
x - y = 150
Let's solve the first equation for x:
x = 8y/5
Now we can use substitution to solve the system by plugging 8y/5 in for x in the second equation:
(8y/5) - y = 150
Simplify:
3y/5 = 150
3y = 750
y = 250
If y = 250, then x is:
x = 8(250)/5 = 400
The answer is 250 and 400.

Answer:
a9 = -8 +9(9 -1)
Step-by-step explanation:
The given sequence has a common difference of 1-(-8) = 10-1 = 9, and a first term of -8. The formula for the n-th term of such an arithmetic sequence is ...
an = a1 +d(n -1) . . . . . first term a1, common difference d
For the parameter of this sequence, a1=-8 and d=9, the n-th term is ...
an = -8 +9(n -1) . . . . formula for the n-th term
__
Then the formula for the 9th term is ...
a9 = -8 +9(9 -1)
