Answer: 21 & 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Sum of two numbers is 39

Difference is 3

Let the numbers be x & y

X+y=39........equation 1

X-y=3...........equation 2

X=3+y............equation 3

Substitute equation 3 into equation 1

(3+y)+y=39

3+y+y=39

3+2y=39

2y=39-3

2y=36

Y=36/2

Y=18

Substitute for y in equation 2

X-y=3

X-18=3

X=3+18

X=21

The two numbers are 21 & 18

Answer:

y - 3= 2(x - 0)  

Step-by-step explanation:

hello :

note 1 :

the point-slope formula is :

y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)   the point is A(x_1  , y_1 )  , m :  the slope

note 2 :

the slope is :   m = (y_2 - y_1)/(x_2 -x_1)  when given two points  :

A(x_1  , y_1 )  and  B(x_2  , y_2 )

in this exercice :  x_1 =0      y_1 =3            x_2 =1      y_2 =1

calculate now   m = (1 - 3)/(1 -0) =-2

an equation  in point-slope form is : y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)  

y - 3= 2(x - 0)

Which of the following is equal to the square root of the cube root of 6?
stiks02 [169]

The correct answer is: [A]: " 6 to the power of (1 over 6) " .

Explanation:

________________________

√ [(∛6)] = √ [6⁽¹/³⁾ ] = [6⁽¹/²⁾ ] ⁽¹/³⁾ = 6^ ( ⁽¹/²⁾ * ⁽¹/³⁾ ) = ???? ;


<u>Note</u>: \frac{1}{2}  *\frac{1}{3}      =   \frac{(1*1)}{(2*3)}    =   \frac{1}{6} ;

________________________

→ 6^ ( ⁽¹/²⁾ * ⁽¹/³⁾ ) ;

= 6^ ( ⁽¹/⁶⁾ ) ;

→ which is: Answer choice: [A]: " 6 to the power of (1 over 6) " .

Find the total cost of a spa treatment of $42 including 6% sales tax and 20% tip
Naily [24]
Cost of the spa treatment = $42
Percentage of sales tax = 6%
Percentage of tips = 20%
Normally the tips amount is calculated before adding sales tax.
Then
Amount of tips given = (20/100) * 42
                                  = (1/5) * 42
                                  = 8.40 dollars
Amount of sales tax taken = (6/100) * 42
                                           = 252/100
                                           = 2.52 dollars
Then 
The total amount spent for spa treatment = (42 + 8.40 + 2.52) dollars
                                                                   = 52.92 dollars
So we can see that $52.92 has been spent in total for spa treatment and this amount includes a sales tax of $2.52 and a tip of $8.40.
