Answer: See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Le the number be x and x+2

The information given can be formed into and equation as:

(x + 2)² = x² + 120

(x + 2)(x + 2) = x² + 120

x² + 2x + 2x + 4 = x² + 120

Collect like terms

x² - x² + 2x + 2x = 120 - 4

4x = 116

x = 116/4

x = 29

The smallest number is 29

The larger number is x + 2 = 29 + 2 = 31

Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

p = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

5p - 10 = + 4(1 + 3p)

first get rid of the bracquetes:

5p - 10 = + 4*1 + 4*3p

5p - 10 = + 4 + 12p

subtract left and right of = sign by 5p

5p -5p - 10 = + 4 + 12p -5p

0 - 10 = + 4 + (12p -5p)

subtract left and right of = sign by 4

-10 -4 = 4 -4 + ( 7p )

Find two solution of linear equation 5x-4y = 8
Fudgin [204]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

5x-4y=8\\-4y=-8-5x\\4y=8+5x\\y=(\frac{8+5x}{4} )

let us assume x to be as x=0

then substitute x value in above equation

 y=\frac{(8+0)}{4} \\y=2

let x= -4

y= \frac{(8-4)}{4} \\y=1

therfore, the solutions of the equation 5x-4y=8 is (0,2) and (-4,1)
