The answer to the question is X=1/3
Let
x---------> the larger number
y---------> the smaller number
we know that
x+y=148------> equation 1
x=3y-2------> equation 2
substitute 2 in 1
[3y-2]+y=148--------> 4y=150---------> y=150/4------> y=37.5
x=3y-2----> x=3*37.5-2-----> x=110.5
the answer is
the larger number is 110.5
the smaller number is 37.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Pythagoras' theorem shows that a^2+b^2=c^2. Not sure how else to help here.
Step-by-step explanation:
a) Perimeter is equal to 2w + 2L
2(3x + 4) + 2(x + 3)
6x + 8 + 2x + 6
8x + 14
b) Put 5 in x's place
8×5 + 14
40 + 14
54
c) Area = (3x + 4) * (x + 3)
Put 4 in x's place
(3×4 + 4) * (4 + 3)
12 + 4 * 7
16 * 7
112
