Algebra.Com's Answer #95759 by ptaylor(2198)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! Let x=the other number that is squared \n" ); document.write( "And let y=the first number\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Now we are told that x^2*y=32\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "solve for y: \n" ); document.write( "y=32/x^2\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The sum S(x) of these two numbers is: \n" ); document.write( "S(x)=x+32/x^2 can this be simplified more?\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Hope this helps---ptaylor \n" ); document.write( " |
