Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the 2 numbers be x and y
From the problem we have that
x * y = 600 and x + y = 59
From x + y = 59 -> x = 59 - y
Plug x = 59 - y to x * y = 600 we have
(59 - y) * y = 600
-> 59y - y^2 = 600
-> -y^2 + 59y - 600 = 0
-> y = 
or 
Then we could plug the answers in and find x because x = 59 - y

Answer:
31 quarters
Step-by-step explanation:
Y = 8x - 2
y = 9x - 7
8x - 2 = 9x - 7
- 8x - 8x
-2 = x - 7
+ 7 + 7
5 = x
y = 8x -2
y = 8(5) - 2
y = 40 - 2
y = 38
(x, y) = (5, 38)
The answer is C.
Answer:
It will take Jack 40 minutes to cover the same distance which Micheal covers in 60 minutes. Both will meet at 3 miles distance at 3 pm.
Step-by-step explanation:
Micheal runs 3 miles in one hour or 60 minutes.
In one minute he runs 3/60= 1/20 or 0.05miles.
Jack runs 4.5 miles in one hour or 60 minutes.
In one minute he runs 4.5/60= 45/600= 9/120= 3/40 or 0.075 miles.
So Jack is 0.075/0.05 = 1.5 times faster than Micheal.
or Micheal is 1.5 times slower than Jack.
Jack starts from 2:20 pm and at 3 pm he will run 0.075(40 minutes)= 3miles
Micheal start at 2:00 pm and at 3 pm he will run 0.05(60 minutes)= 3 miles
So at 3 pm both will have covered equal distance= 3miles.
It will take Jack 40 minutes to cover the same distance which Micheal covers in 60 minutes. Both will meet at 3 miles distance at 3 pm.
