Answer:
x = - 8, x = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the 2 equations
x² + y² = 100 → (1)
y = x + 2 → (2)
Substitute y = x + 2 into (1)
x² + (x + 2)² = 100
x² + x² + 4x + 4 = 100
2x² + 4x + 4 = 100 ( subtract 100 from both sides )
2x² + 4x - 96 = 0 ( divide through by 2 )
x² + 2x - 48 = 0 ← in standard form
(x + 8)(x - 6) = 0 ← in factored form
Equate each factor to zero and solve for x
x + 8 = 0 ⇒ x = - 8
x - 6 = 0 ⇒ x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of sales each man had.
For Salesman A, he earns $65 per sale; this is 65x.
For Salesman B, he earns $40 per sale; this is 40x. We also add to this his weekly salary of $300; this gives us 40x+300.
Since their pay was equal, set the two expressions equal:
65x = 40x+300
Subtract 40x from each side:
65x-40x = 40x+300-40x
25x = 300
Divide both sides by 25:
25x/25 = 300/25
x = 12
