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:
idk
Step-by-step explanation:
Hey.
acc'g to the conditions :
Let Catherine has x
and James has 5 + 3x
Then,

Hence
• Catherine has = x = $9,
• and James has = 5 +3x = 5 + 3(9) = $32
Thanks.
<span>(2 + 5i)(2 + i)
= 4 + 10i + 2i + 5i^2
= 4 + 12i + 5i^2</span>
