Let the numbers are a and b; a - 5 = 2b, and -------------- (1)a2 + b2 = 250 ----------------(2) rewriting and squaring of (1) is given as; a2 = 4b2 + 20b + 25 -------- (3) substituting (3) into (2) (4b2 + 20b + 25) + b2 = 250, thus 5b2 + 20b - 225 = 0 by dividing both sides by 5 b2 + 4b - 45 = 0 solving the quadratic for b, we will get b = -9 or 5, substituting these for b in (1), we will get a asa = -13 or 15 However, if a and b must be positive integer, then a = 15 and b = 5 is the answer

Someone, please help me with this.
Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

\large\boxed{x=14}

Step-by-step explanation:

Because the angles are adjacent to each other and form a straight line, they are supplementary angles. Supplementary angles add up to 180 degrees, therefore, you can add the two angle measures together and set them equal to 180.

(7x - 1) + (6x - 1) = 180 combine like terms

13x - 2 = 180 add 2 to both sides

13x = 182 divide by 13 on both sides

\boxed{x=14}

The median number of points scored by 9 players in a basketball game is 12 the range of the numbers of points scored by the same
VLD [36.1K]
The question is incomplete. Still if the question is asking for the 2 possible numbers for the smallest and highest scores, it would be 9 and 16.

Total 9 numbers. Write them in increasing order. The MIDDLE number is your Median. The range is the difference between the largest and the smallest number. So, the possiblities are:
8-1, 9-2, 10-3, 11-4, 12-5, 13-6, 14-7, 15-8, 16-9, 17-10, 18-11, 19-12. As 12 is the median, the possiblity of any other than 13-6 thru 17-10 with a lot of repeating numbers (mode) is not there. So, I chose 16 and 9.
