Answer:

  the numbers are 7 and 11

Step-by-step explanation:

If you add the smaller to the sum of numbers, you have the sum of the greater and twice the smaller. That is ...

  18 + smaller = 25

  smaller = 25 -18 = 7

  larger = 18 -7 = 11

The two numbers are 7 and 11.

_____

If you like, you can write two equations. Let x and y represent the smaller and larger numbers, respectively.

  x + y = 18

  2x + y = 25

Subtract the first equation from the second:

  (2x +y) -(x +y) = (25) -(18)

  x = 7

  y = 18-x = 18-7 = 11

The numbers are 7 and 11.

Solve the system of linear equations using any method 6x+6y=-6, 5x+y=-13
Sergio [31]

Answer:

x=-3

y=2

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem you can use the elimination method:

- Multiply the second equation by -6:

(-6)5x+y=-13\\-30x-6y=78

- Add both equations:

6x+6y=-6\\-30x-6y=78\\-------\\-24x=72\\x=-3

- Substitute the value of x into one of the original equations and solve for y:

6(-3)+6y=-6\\-18+6y=-6\\6y=12\\y=2

For questions 1- 3 find the exact sum or difference.
7nadin3 [17]
D, Because 7/15 + 9/15 is 16/15 + 4/15 =20/15 which equals 1 5/15 which turns into 1 1/3
A, 1/21 + 2/21 = 3/21 and that equals 1/7

C, 3/14+3/12 turns into 3/14+5/14= 10/14 - 8/14= 2/14=1/7

Ronch [10]

Answer:

H0 : μEng = μBio

H1: μEng ≠ μBio

Step-by-step explanation:

μEng = Engineering average gpa

μBio = Biology average gpa

To test for difference between two sample means , in this case grade point average of biology majors and Engineering major.

Null hypothesis is the initial truth, which is that ; there is no difference in the mean grade point average of both biology and engineering majors

H0 : μEng = μBio

The Alternative hypothesis is the opposite of the null, which is stated has ; there is difference between the average GPA of both Engineering and Biology majors

H1: μEng ≠ μBio
