One positive number is 14 less than another positive number. If the reciprocal of the smaller number is added to five times the
Kipish [7]

Let's call the two numbers s and l.


Given these variables, we can say: s = l - 14, based on the first sentence in the problem.


Also, remember that the reciprocal of a number is simply 1 divided by the number. Thus, we can say that:

\dfrac{1}{s} + 5\Big( \dfrac{1}{l} \Big) = \dfrac{1}{4}


To solve, we can simply substitute l -14 in for s in the second equation and solve.

\dfrac{1}{l - 14} + \dfrac{5}{l} = \dfrac{1}{4}

  • Set up

\dfrac{l}{l(l - 14)} + \dfrac{5(l - 14)}{l(l - 14)} = \dfrac{1}{4}

  • Get terms on the left side to a common denominator for easier addition

\dfrac{l + 5l - 70}{l(l - 14)} = \dfrac{1}{4}

  • Simplify

4(6l - 70) = l(l - 14)

  • Cross multiplication (\frac{a}{b} = \frac{c}{d} \Rightarrow ad = bc)

24l - 280 = l^2 - 14l

  • Simplify

l^2 - 38l + 280 = 0

  • Subtract 24l - 280 from both sides of the equation

(l - 10)(l - 28) = 0

  • Factor left side of the equation

l = 10, 28

  • Zero Product Property

Now, notice that we have found two solutions, but the problem is only asking for one. This <em>likely </em>means that one of our solutions is extraneous. Let's take a look. Remember that the smaller positive number is equal to 14 less than the larger number. However,

s = 10 - 14 = -4,

Since s is not positive in this case, l = 10 is not a solution.


Thus, l = 28 is our only solution. In this case,

s = 28 - 14 = 14,

which means that the smaller number is 14 and the larger number is 28.

Tests for tuberculosis like all other diagnostic tests are not perfect. QFT-G is one of such tests for tuberculosis. Suppose tha
Sauron [17]

Answer:

the probability of an adult getting a NEG result and truly having tuberculosis is 0.0127

Step-by-step explanation:

S = the adult really has tuberculosis.

S' = complement of S = the adult does not has tuberculosis.

POS = the test gives a positive result

P(S)= 0.05

P(POS | S)=0.746

P(NEG | S')= 0.7653

this is an intersection because the "and" word

P(NEG ∩ S) =  P(NEG| S)*P(S)=(1-P(POS | S))*P(S)=(1-0.746)*0.05=0.0127

Another way to check the sum of 104+34+228+877
vekshin1
We are asked to identify an another way to solve the given problem or this summation 104 + 34 + 228 + 887. We can verify it by doing of performing the summation in a reverse sequence such 877 comes first, then followed by 228, then followed by 34 and lastly added by 104. Therefore, the answer is 877 + 228 + 34 + 104.This is an another way to solve the given problem.
