Let smaller number be x/2 and the larger number x.

x/2 + x = 81
x/2 + x = 3x/2
3x/2 = 81
3x = 162
x= 54

The smaller number is 54/2= 27 and the larger number is 54.

How to find the slope from two points (14, -69) and (17, -57)
vampirchik [111]

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

to find the slope from 2 points, you do y2-y1/x2-x1

in this case, it would be -57-(-69)=12

and then x2-x1 is 17-14=3

so, the slope is 12/3 or 4

Let A( t , f( t ) ) be the point(s) at which the graph of the function has a horizontal tangent => f ' ( t ) = 0.

But, f ' ( x ) = [ ( x^2 ) ' * ( x - 1 ) - ( x^2 ) * ( x - 1 )' ] / ( x - 1 )^2 =>
f ' ( x ) = [ 2x( x - 1 ) - ( x^2 ) * 1 ] / ( x - 1 )^2 => f ' ( x ) = ( x^2 - 2x ) / ( x - 1 )^2;

f ' ( t ) = 0 <=> t^2 - 2t = 0 <=> t * ( t - 2 ) = 0 <=> t = 0 or t = 2 => f ( 0 ) = 0; f ( 2 ) = 4 => A 1 ( 0 , 0 ) and A 2 ( 2 , 4 ).

The angles of a quadrilateral measures 80 degrees 100 degrees 100 degrees in this order. What kind of quadrilateral has this sha
bija089 [108]
A parallelogram

Because...
-opposite angles are congruent
-four sides
-angles must equal 360
       100 + 100 +80 + y = 360

       280 + y = 360

       y = 80
-the angle we don't know is 80 degrees
