Answer:

  1. Let the first number = x
  2. Therefore, the other number = x + 2 (x+2 is so as in two consecutive even numbers there is 1 odd number)
  3. Now, According to question
  4. x + x + 2 = 122
  5. 2x + 2 = 122
  6. 2x = 122-2
  7. 2x = 120
  8. x = 120/2
  9. x = 60
  10. Now, first no. = x = 60
  11. Therefore, second no. = x + 2 = 60 + 2 = 62
  12. Equation 60 + 62 = 122

Answer:

The numbers are : 60 , 62

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the two consecutive even numbers be 2x , 2x + 2

2x + 2x + 2 = 122

Combine like terms

4x + 2 = 122

Subtract 2 from both sides

4x = 122 - 2

4x = 120

x = 120/4

x = 30

2x = 2*30 = 60

2x + 2 = 2*30 + 2 = 60 + 2 = 62

What two numbers add up to 18 and multiply to 80
mestny [16]

Answer:

8 and 10

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let's look at the factors of 80.

1 • 80 = 80

2 • 40 = 80

4 • 20 = 80

5 • 16 = 80

8 • 10 = 80

Look at each pair and evaluate their sum.

1 • 80 = 80

  • 1 + 80 = 81

2 • 40 = 80

  • 2 + 40 = 42

4 • 20 = 80

  • 4 + 20 = 24

5 • 16 = 80

  • 5 + 16 = 21

8 • 10 = 80

  • 8 + 10 = 18

Our last pairing multiplies to 80 and adds up to 18. Therefore, your answer is 8 & 10.

Hope this helps!

A restaurant operator in Accra has found out that during the partial lockdown, if she sells a plate of her food for GH¢20 each,
Lilit [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First, note this parameters from the question.

We let x = number of $5 increases and number of 10 decreases in plates sold.

Our Revenue equation is:

R(x) = (300-10x)(10+5x)

We expand the above equation into a quadratic equation by multiplying each bracket:

R(x) = 3000 + 1500x - 3000x - 1500x^2

R(x) = -1500x^2 - 1500x + 3000 (collect like terms)

Next we simplify, by dividing through by -1500

= 1500x^2/1500 - 1500x/1500 + 3000/1500

= X^2 - x + 2

X^2 - x + 2 = 0

Next, we find the axis of symmetry using the formula x = -b/(2*a) where b = 1, a = 1

X = - (-1)/2*1

X = 1/2

Number of $5 increases = $5x1/2 = $2.5

=$2.5 + $20 = $22.5 ticket price gives max revenue.
