Answer:

The first number is 14

The second number is -3

Step-by-step explanation:

x + 2y = 8

2x + y = 25

Solving simultaneously,

2x + 4y = 16

2x + y = 25

On subtracting, we have

3y = -9

y = -3

Going to substitute for y, we have

x + 2(-3) = 8

x - 6 = 8

x = 14

Jared is redoing his bathroom floor with tiles measuring 6 in. by 14 in. The floor has an area of 8,900 in. What is the least nu

Bond [772]

Firstly we need to find an area of a single tile:

6 * 14 = 84 square inches

Now we just need to find out how many tiles of 84 square inches will fit in an area of 8900 square inches:

8900 ÷ 84 = 105,952380952381

Assuming we can't cut a tile into pieces, we may round the result to 106.

Answer: The least number of tiles Jared will need is 106.
