Answer:

3 and 17 are required integers

Step-by-step explanation:

Let one integer be x
And other integer be y

x = 4y + 5

xy = 51

According to question :

➞ (4y + 5)y = 51

➞ 4y² + 5y = 51

➞ 4y² + 5y - 51 = 0

➞ 4y² + 17y - 12y - 51 = 0

➞ y (4y + 17) - 3(4y + 17) = 0

➞ (y - 3)(4y - 17) = 0

➞ y - 3 = 0

➞ y = 3

Hence,

➞ y = 3

➞ x = 4y + 5

➞ x = 4 (3) + 5

➞ x = 12 + 5

➞ x = 17

∴ The required integers are 3 and 17

Trey solved the equation 1/4(8x+16) = 4x, the answer he got was 8=x. Describe the error he made. Then solve the problem...PLZ HE

Dimas [21]

In this case, you can multiply both sides by 4 to get rid of the 1/4 real quick.
4[1/4(8x+16=4x]
8x+16=16x
8x=16
x=2

What is the slope of the line y=-8x+6

Talja [164]

Linear equations can be written in the form y = mx + b where the multiplier "m" represents the slope of the line.

The linear equation y = -8x + 6 has a slope equal to 3.

An image providing where the slope of the line is in y = mx + b is provided.

Which expression is equivalent to 8/9 divided by 3/4

ipn [44]

Step-by-step explanation:

Dividing by a fraction is the same as multiplying with the opposite of the fraction. 8/9 / 3/4=8/9×4/3=32/27=1 5/27.

Can someone solve this?

ladessa [460]

First question:

Recall that $\cos^2x+\sin^2x=1$ and $\sqrt{x^2}=|x|$ for all $x$ . So

$\sqrt{1-\cos^2x}=\sqrt{\sin^2x}=|\sin x|$

$\sqrt{1-\sin^2x}=\sqrt{\cos^2x}=|\cos x|$

For $0$ , we expect both $\cos x>0$ and $\sin x>0$ (i.e. the sine and cosine of any angle that lies in the first quadrant must be positive). By definition of absolute value, $|x|=x$ if $x>0$ .

So we have

$\dfrac{\sqrt{1-\cos^2x}}{\sin x}+\dfrac{\sqrt{1-\sin^2x}}{\cos x}=\dfrac{\sin x}{\sin x}+\dfrac{\cos x}{\cos x}=1+1=\boxed{2}$

making H the answer.

Second question:

C is always true, because the inequality reduces to x > y.
