Answer:

80 and 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Gussing that the two numbers are m and n where m is greater than n.

We know that the quotient of the two numbers is 20. This means that:

m / n = 20

m = 20 n ..............> Step 1

We also know that the sum of the two numbers is 84. This means that:

m + n = 84 .............> Step 2

Substitute by Step 1 in Step 2 as follows:

20n + n = 84

21n = 84

n = 4

Substitute with the value of n in Step 1 to get m as follows:

m = 20n

m = 20*4 = 80

Hence, based on the above calculations:

The two numbers are 80 and 4

Answer:

D. $x-\frac{5}{2}y = \frac{25}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$y = \frac{2}{5}x - 5$

Required

Determine its equivalent

From the list of given options, the correct answer is

$x - \frac{5}{2}y = \frac{25}{2}$

This is shown as follows;

$y = \frac{2}{5}x - 5$

Multiply both sides by $\frac{5}{2}$

$\frac{5}{2} * y = \frac{5}{2} * (\frac{2}{5}x - 5)$

Open Bracket

$\frac{5}{2} * y = \frac{5}{2} * \frac{2}{5}x - \frac{5}{2} *5$

$\frac{5}{2}y = x - \frac{25}{2}$

Subtract x from both sides

$\frac{5}{2}y - x = x -x - \frac{25}{2}$

$\frac{5}{2}y - x = - \frac{25}{2}$

Multiply both sides by -1

$-1 * \frac{5}{2}y - x * -1 = - \frac{25}{2} * -1$

$-\frac{5}{2}y + x = \frac{25}{2}$

Reorder

$x-\frac{5}{2}y = \frac{25}{2}$

Hence, the correct option is D

$x-\frac{5}{2}y = \frac{25}{2}$
