ill give u a medal;)

Answer 1

Is this multiple choice?

Answer 2

The first and second number will be x and y respectively.
x = 5y.
And it says the product (multiplication) of x and y is 245.
xy = 245.
Since it tells you what x is equal to, plug it in the 2nd equation.
5y times y = 245
\[5y ^{2} = 245\]
Divide by 5 to isolate the variable.
\[y ^{2} = 49\]
Take the square root of y to get rid of the 2nd power.
y = 7
Then plug y in to get x.
xy = 245
7x = 245
Divide by 49.
x = 35
