Your answer would be 23.85 but I presume they rounded up so it would be 23.9
Answer:
you have to use the Pythagorean theorem. a^2 + b^2= c^2
72^2 + b^2 = 75^2
5184 + b^2 = 5625 (subtract 5184 from both sides)
b^2= 441 (find the square root of each side)
b= 21
Answer:
The two numbers are 18 and 42
Step-by-step explanation:
let the two numbers = x and y
Their sum: x + y = 60 ------ (1)
Also, dividing the larger by the smaller (partition = 2 and remainder = 6).
Let the larger number = y

Substitute the value of y into equation (1)
x + (2x + 6) = 60
x + 2x + 6 = 60
3x + 6 = 60
3x = 60 - 6
3x = 54
x = 54 / 3
x = 18
y = 2x + 6
y = 2(18) + 6
y = 36 + 6
y = 42
The two numbers are 18 and 42
