Step-by-step explanation:

x + y = 50

x - y = 4

x = y + 4

let's use that as substitute in the first equation

y + 4 + y = 50

2y = 46

y = 46/2 = 23

x = y + 4 = 23 + 4 = 27

the 2 numbers are 23 and 27.

Step-by-step explanation:

let the 2 numbers be x and x + 4 as their deference is 4.

their sum = 50

now,

→ x + x + 4 = 50

→ 2x + 4 = 50

→ 2x = 50 - 4 = 46

→ x = 46/2 = 23

therefore two numbers are,

x = 23

x + 4 = 23 + 4 = 27

hope this answer helps you dear...take care and may u have a great day ahead!

If f(x)=x2+10sinx, show that there is a number c such that f(c)=1000.

F(x) is continuous for all x.

Pick a point and show that f(x) is either negative or positive. Pick another point and show that f(x) is negative, if positive, or positive, if negative.

At x = 30, f(30) - 1000 = 900 + 10sin(30) - 1000 ≤ 0
Now, show at another point f(x) - 1000 is positive, and hence, there would be root between 30 and such point.

Let's pick 40.
At x = 40, f(40) - 1000 = 1600 + 10sin(40) - 1000 ≥ 0

Since f(x) - 1000 is continuous, there lies a root between 30 and 40, and hence, 30 ≤ c ≤ 40
