Answer:

x = 12

y = 13

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's assume the two numbers as x and y.

The sum of the two numbers is 25

So,

  • x+y = 25
  • y = 25 - x

The product of the two numbers is 156

  • xy = 156
  • x(25 - x) = 156
  • 25x - x² = 156
  • x² - 25x + 156 = 0
  • x² - 13x - 12x - 156 = 0
  • (x - 12) • (x - 13) = 0
  • x - 13 = 0
  • x = 13
  • x - 12 = 0
  • x = 12

Hence, the two numbers are 13 and 12.

Example: we have to find 2 number : a and b

  • a + b = 25 ⇒ a = 25 - b (1)
  • a × b = 156 ⇒ a = 156/b  (2)

(1)(2) ⇒ 156/b =  25 - b

⇒ 156/b - 25 + b = 25 - b - 25 + b

⇒ b - 25 + 156/b = 0

⇒ (b - 25 + 156/b) × b = 0 × b = 0

⇒ b² - 25b + 156  = 0

⇒ b² - (13b + 12b) + 156 = 0

⇒ b² - 13b - 12b + 156 = 0

⇒ (b² - 13b) + (- 12b + 156) = 0

⇒ b(b - 13) - 12(b - 13) = 0

⇒ (b - 13)(b - 12) = 0

⇒ b = 13 or b = 12

  • if b = 12 => a = 25 - 12 = 13
  • if b = 13 => a = 25 - 13 = 12

Answer: 12 and 13

OK done. Thank to me :>

Figure a is a scale image of figure b. what is the value of x? please answer asap!
emmainna [20.7K]

<em>Greetings from Brasil...</em>

According to the statement, one figure is scaled in relation to another, so we can apply similarity to polygons.....

So

BIG/small = BIG/small

or

small/BIG = small/BIG

12.5/10 = X/16

OR

10/12.5 = 16/X

12.5/10 = X/16

10X = 12.5 · 16

X = 200/10

<h3>X = 20</h3>

20. If a certain linear function f(x) is evaluated at 0, the answer is 4.
bija089 [108]

Answer:

y = (1/3)x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Two points on this line are (0, 4) and (3, 5).

As we move from the first point to the second, x increases by 3 and y increases by 1.  Thus, the slope, m, of the line is m = rise / run = 1/3.

Use the slope-intercept equation:  y = mx + b.

If we use the data from the point (0, 4), we get:

4 = (1/3)(0) + b, so that b = 4.  The desired equation is y = (1/3)x + 4.
