Answer:

  • 4 and 6 or -6 and -4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the numbers are 2x and 2x + 2.

<u>We have:</u>

  • (2x + 2x + 2)² = (2x)² + (2x + 2)² + 48
  • 4(2x + 1)² = 4x² + 4(x + 1)² + 48
  • (2x + 1)² = x² + (x + 1)² + 12
  • 4x² + 4x + 1 = x² + x² + 2x + 1 + 12
  • 2x² + 2x - 12 = 0
  • x² + x - 6 = 0
  • (x - 2)(x + 3) = 0
  • x = 2, x = -3

<u>The numbers are:</u>

  • 4 and 6 or - 6 and - 4

Subtract 7 from the product of 4 and a number results in the number added to 29 is what
german
4x-7=29 < do you understand how to set that up? Now, the goal is to “get x by itself.”

4x-7=29< now add the 7 to the 29. When you cross an equals sign you change the (+/-) sign of the number you’re moving.

4x= 36< now you will just divide by 4 on both sides. This will give you x by itself on the left side of the equals sign.

x=36/4 which is 9

X=9 :))

Tanzania [10]

x+y=23 and 10x+24y=426 can be used to determine the number of small and large boxes shipped where x represents the number of small boxes and y represent the number of large boxes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Volume of small box = 10 cubic feet

Volume of large box = 24 cubic feet

Total boxes shipped = 23

Combined volume = 426 cubic feet

Let,

x represent the number of small boxes.

y represent the number of large boxes.

x+y=23    

10x+24y=426

x+y=23 and 10x+24y=426 can be used to determine the number of small and large boxes shipped where x represents the number of small boxes and y represent the number of large boxes.
