Respuesta :

they give us 2 pieces to the puzzle.  Both are positive numbers...x and y.
1.) 1 number is 1 less than twice another number. (x = 2y -1)...and
2.) the sum of their squares is 106.  (x^2 + y^2 = 106).

 substitute the value for x into the second equation.

(2y-1)^2 + y^2 = 106
(2y-1) (2y-1) + y^2 = 106  (use distributive property)
4y^2 - 2y - 2y + 1 + y^2 = 106  (subtract 106 from both sides)
4y^2 - 2y - 2y + 1 + y^2 - 106 = 106 - 106 (combine like terms)
5y^2 - 4y - 105 = 0  (factor)
(y-5) (5y-21) = 0  (set to 0)
y - 5 = 0
y = 5 

substitute the 5 into the equation for y   (x = 2(5) - 1)
           x = 9   if we square 9, we get 81.
subtracted from 106 we have 25...the square root of 25 is 5.

our answers are 5 and 9.

The two integers are 5 and 9.

Given:

  • One positive integer is 1 less than twice another.
  • The sum of squares of two integers is 106

To find:

The values of integers.

Explanation:

Let [tex]x[/tex] and [tex]y[/tex] are the two integers. Then,

[tex]y=2x-1[/tex]               ...(i)

[tex]x^2+y^2=106[/tex]       ...(ii)

Using (i) and (ii), we get

[tex]x^2+(2x-1)^2=106[/tex]

[tex]x^2+4x^2-4x+1-106=0[/tex]

[tex]5x^2-4x-105=0[/tex]

Split the middle term.

[tex]5x^2-25x+21x-105=0[/tex]

[tex]5x(x-5)+21(x-5)=0[/tex]

[tex](5x+21)(x-5)=0[/tex]

Using the zero product property, we get

[tex]5x+21=0[/tex]

[tex]x=-\dfrac{21}{5}[/tex]

It is not an integer.

[tex]x-5=0[/tex]

[tex]x=5[/tex]

Substituting [tex]x=5[/tex] in (i), we get

[tex]y=2(5)-1[/tex]

[tex]y=10-1[/tex]

[tex]y=9[/tex]

Therefore, the two integers are 5 and 9.
