Using x and y as the numbers

x+y=25 -------#1
x-y=9  -------#2

Using addition of #1 and #2
x+y+x-y= 25+9
2x+0y=34
2x=34
x=17

Using the value of x and plugging said value into #1 or #2, we can find y
x=17

x+y=25
17+y=25
y=8

OR

x-y=9
17-y=9
-y=-8
y=8

The numbers are 8 and 17

Angle A and Angle B are supplementary angles. The ratio of the measure of Angle A to the measure of Angle B is 5:4. Find the mea
tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

Angle A = 100°

Angle B = 80°

Step-by-step explanation:

Supplementary angles sum 180°

Angle A to Angle B ratio is 5:4, you can write that ratio using a factor.

Angle A = 5x

Angle B = 4x

Since the sum is 180°

Angle A + Angle B = 180°

5x + 4x = 180°

9x = 180°

x = 20°

Replacing x = 20°

Angle A = 5(20°) = 100°

Angle B = 4(20°) 80°

harry says that 1/4+1/8=2/8. jane says 1/4+1/8=3/8.whose answer make sense and whose amswer is nonsense? exolain your resoning.
Flura [38]
Harry makes no sense because 1/4 into a denominator of 8 is 2/8. So 2/8 + 1/8 is equal to 3/8 and Harry has done the equation wrong.

A basketball player made 75% of her free throws in 10 games. She had 36 free throw tries. How many did she make?
makvit [3.9K]
If she had 36 free throw tries and made 75% of them, you would multiply 36 by 0.75.  Percentages are really just parts out of 100, so 75 in decimal form would be 0.75 (out of 1.0).

36 x 0.75 = 27   ( the same as 3/4 of 36 )

So, the basketball player made 27 free throws.
