Answer:

Check the solution in both equations. The solution is ( − 1, 2). Solve the system by graphing: {− x + y = 12 x + y = 10 . Solve the system by graphing: {2x + y = 6 x + y = 1 . In all the systems of linear equations so far, the lines intersected and the solution was one point.

Hope it helps!!!

The sum of squares of two consecutive odd numbers is 514 find the numbers

amid [387]

Correct Question : The sum of squares of two consecutive positive odd numbers is 514. Find the numbers.

$\rule{130}1$

Solution :

Let the two consecutive positive odd numbers be x and (x + 2)

$\rule{130}1$

☯ $\underline{\boldsymbol{According\: to \:the\: Question\:now :}}$

$:\implies\sf x^2 + (x + 2)^{2} = 514 \\\\\\:\implies\sf x^2 + x^2 + 4x + 4 = 514\\\\\\:\implies\sf 2x^2 + 4x + 4 = 514 \\\\\\:\implies\sf 2x^2 + 4x = 514 - 4\\\\\\:\implies\sf 2x^2 + 4x = 510 \\\\\\:\implies\sf 2x^2 + 4x - 510 = 0\\\\\\:\implies\sf x^2 + 2x - 255 = 0 \:\:\:\:\:\Bigg\lgroup \bf{Dividing\:by\:2}\Bigg\rgroup\\\\\\:\implies\sf x^2 + 17x - 15x - 255 = 0\\\\\\:\implies\sf x(x + 17) - 15(x + 17) = 0\\\\\\:\implies\sf (x + 17) (x - 15)\\\\\\:\implies\sf x = - 17\:or\:x = 15\\\\\\:\implies\underline{\boxed {\sf x = 15}}\:\:\:\:\:\Bigg\lgroup \bf{Positive\:odd\: number}\Bigg\rgroup$

When,

$\bullet\: \textsf {x = } \textbf {15}$

$\bullet\: \sf x + 2 = 15 + 2 =\textbf{ 17}$

$\therefore\:\underline{\textsf{The required positive integer is \textbf{15 and 17}}}.$
