help me with 25th sum...
Answers
Divide 20 into two parts such that three times the square of one part exceeds the other part by 10.
Let the parts be = x and y
We know that these numbers are parts of 20. Thus, we can also say that:
.....(1)
Now, the given condition is that of one part exceeds the other part
=》
=》 ....(2)
Put (2) in (1) :
=》
=》
=》
Solve this formed equation further by the splitting middle term method:
=》
=》
=》
=》
Since the first value isn't acceptable, the only value of x can be 3
Therefore ,
=》 x + y = 20
=》
Thus, the numbers will be
Solution :
Assuming the parts as P and Q.
➨ P + Q = 20 ...........(i)
According to the Question ,
➨ 3p² = q + 10
➨ 3p² - 10 = q ............(ii)
Now , putting (ii) in (i) :-
➨ p + q = 20
➨ p + 3p² - 10 = 20
➨ 3p² + p - 30 = 0
Now ,
Let's Solve the equation -
➨ 3p² - 9p + 10p - 30
➨ 3p ( p - 3 ) + 10 ( p - 3 )
➨ ( 3p + 10 ) ( p - 3 )
➨ p = (-10)/3 and 3
Here , appropriate value of p can only be 3.
So , P = 3
➨ p + q = 20
➨ y = 20 - p i.e. 20 - 3
➨ y = 17
Hence ,
