Let x = small number
Let y = large number 
Because they are consecutive even numbers,they must have a difference of 2:
y-x=2
y=2+x

Eqn 1: x+(2+x)=14

Eqn 2: x(2+x)=48

2x+2=14
2x=12
x=6

This means y must be 8 

so your two numbers are 6 and 8

Line L is mapped onto the line t by a dilation centered at
STatiana [176]

The equation of line T is 2x - y = 7 ⇒ (6x - 3y = 21)

Step-by-step explanation:

A dilation is a transformation that produces an image that is the same shape as the original, but is a different size

  • If the equation of a  line is ax + by = k is dilated, with center origin and scale factor k, then the equation of the image of the line is kax + kby = kc
  • The line and its image are parallel
  • The coordinates of a general point on the image is (kx , ky)

Line L is mapped onto the line T by a dilation centered at the origin and  a scale factor of 3.

That means lint T is the image of line L after dilation

∵ The equation of line L is 2x - y = 7

∵ Line L is dilated by scale factor 3 and centered at origin

- That means multiply the equation of line L by 3 to find the

   equation of line t

∵ Line T is the image of line L after dilation

∴ The equation of line T is (3)(2x) - (3)(y) = (3)(7)

∴ The equation of line T is 6x - 3y = 21

<em>Very important note:</em>

The equation of line T is the same with equation of line L but multiplied by the scale factor 3 ⇒ L and T are coincide lines (same line)

That means the equation of lines T and L is 2x - y = 7

The equation of line T is 2x - y = 7 ⇒ (6x - 3y = 21)

In need of geometry help, once again my stupid brain cant remember anything.
melomori [17]

You cannot rely on the drawing alone to prove or disprove congruences. Instead, pull out the info about the sides and angles being congruent so we can make our decision.

The diagram shows that:

  • Side AB = Side XY (sides with one tick mark)
  • Side BC = Side YZ (sides with double tickmarks)
  • Angle C = Angle Z (similar angle markers)

We have two pairs of congruent sides, and we also have a pair of congruent angles. We can't use SAS because the angles are not between the congruent sides. Instead we have SSA which is not a valid congruence theorem (recall that ambiguity is possible for SSA). The triangles may be congruent, or they may not be, we would need more information.

---------------

So to answer the question if they are congruent, I would say "not enough info". If you must go with a yes/no answer, then I would say "no, they are not congruent" simply because we cannot say they are congruent. Again we would need more information.

Two groups of staff at a store are making flowers to decorate the entrance. If Group A were to do it alone, it would take them 1
Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

\dfrac{6750}{7}

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of flowers. If Group A were to make x flowers alone, it would take them 10 hours to complete the task, then they make \dfrac{x}{10} flowers in an hour.  If Group B were to make x flowers alone, it would take them 15 hours to complete the task, then they make \dfrac{x}{15} flowers in an hour.

The groups decided to work together. They can make \dfrac{x}{10}+\dfrac{x}{15}=\dfrac{x}{6} together in an hour and it takes them \dfrac{x}{\frac{x}{6}}=6 hours. Group B took a break for 1 hour and 40 minutes (1\dfrac{2}{3} hour), then Group B works

6-1\dfrac{2}{3}=4\dfrac{1}{3} hours.

Thus,

\dfrac{x}{10}\cdot 6-\dfrac{x}{15}\cdot 4\dfrac{1}{3}=300,\\ \\\dfrac{3x}{5}-\dfrac{13x}{45}=300,\\ \\14x=300\cdot 45=13500,\\ \\x=\dfrac{13500}{14}=\dfrac{6750}{7}.

If a radius of a circle is 12 feet, what is the area and perimeter of the circle?
Vesna [10]
Area of a circle=πr²
area of this cirlce=π*(12 ft)²=144π ft²≈452.39 ft².

answer 1= the area of this circle is 452.39 ft².

Perimeter of a circle=2πr.
Perimeter of this cirlce=2π(12 ft)=24π ft≈75.4 ft

<span>answer 2= the perimeter of this cirlce is 75.4 ft.</span>
