6/17 x 100 = 35.294...
17 x 6 = 102
x+y=17 xy=6 x=6/y 6/y+y=17 6/y+y2/y=17 (6+y2)/y=17 y2-17y+6=0 Using quadratic equation: y = (17 +- sqrt(265))/2 x = 17-y
17 x 1 = 17 17 x 2 = 34 17 x 3 = 51 17 x 4 = 68 17 x 5 = 85 17 x 6 = 102 17 x 7 = 119 17 x 8 = 136 17 x 9 = 153 17 x 10 = 170
The two numbers are 23 and 6. Let: x = first number y = second number x + y = 29 (Equation 1) x - y = 17 x = 17 + y (Equation 2) Substitute Eq. (2) in Eq. (1): x + y = 29 (17 + y) + y = 29 17 + 2y = 29 17 -17 + 2y = 29 - 17 2y = 12 2y/2 = 12/2 y = 6 - second number x = 17 + y x = 17 + 6 x = 23 - first number check. 23 - 6 = 17 17 = 17 Therefore, the two numbers are 23 and 6.
x = 17-6
6/17 x 100 = 35.3% (rounded)
