8. A student was asked to prove by contradiction that

“there are no positive integers x and y such that 3x 2 + 2xy – y 2 = 25”

The start of the student’s proof is shown in the box below.

Assume that integers x and y exist such that 3x 2 + 2xy – y 2 = 25

⇒ (3 x − y ) ( x + y ) = 25

If (3 x − y ) = 1 and ( x + y ) = 25

3x − y = 1
 ⇒ 4 x = 26 ⇒ x = 6.5, y = 18.5 Not integers
x + y = 25

Show the calculations and statements that are needed to complete the proof.

10. A spherical ball of ice of radius 12 cm is placed in a bucket of water.
In a model of the situation,
• the ball remains spherical as it melts
• t minutes after the ball of ice is placed in the bucket, its radius is r cm
• the rate of decrease of the radius of the ball of ice is inversely proportional to the
square of the radius
• the radius of the ball of ice is 6 cm after 15 minutes
Using the model and the information given,
(a) find an equation linking r and t,
