Answer: <u><em>The first no. is 6 and the second no. is 4.</em></u>

Step-by-step explanation: Let the 2 no. s be x and y respectively.

→x+ 2y = 14

<em>→x-y = 2 </em>

<em>∴ x = 2+y</em>

<em>y = y</em>

∴ x+2y=14

= 2+y+2y=14

3y=14-2

3y=12 , y = 12/3=4

∴y = 4

→x = 2+y

= 2+4=6

∴x=6

<u><em>Thus, the first no. is 6 and the second no. is 4.</em></u>

70 because you would divide 150.8 by 2 and it gives you 75.4 but you have to round it and do v=4/3×3.14×70^3

Rodney created a graph of each given linear equation below, but Rodney made mistakes on each of his graphs. Explain Rodney’s err
iogann1982 [59]

Rodney's errors on each of the graphs given can be explained as in the explanation below.

<h3>Linear graphs of slope-intercept form equations</h3>

Rodney's error on each of the given linear graphs are as follows;

For y= 30x +10;

  • The slope of the graph is 30 and it's intercept is; 10. Hence, the graph should intersect/touch the y-axis at (0,10)

For y= (-1/2)x +5;

  • The slope of the given function is; -1/2 and hence, the graph should be a decreasing linear graph.

For y= x -2;

  • The slope and intercept of the given function are 1 and -2 respectively. On this note, the graphed line should intersect the y-axis at point (0, -2) and the graph should be an increasing linear graph.
