Let x represent the larger number.
Let y represent the smaller number.
x-y=4 Given
3x=5y-2 Given
Now we can just substitute; let x=4+y
Substitute 4+y for x in the second equation:
3(4+y)=5y-2
12+3y=5y-2
-2y=-14
y=7
Substitute back (into BOTH equations to double check work).
x, the larger number, is 11
Answer:
the new point would be (1, 10).
Step-by-step explanation:
if you start with the point (6, 7) and go left 5 units and up 3 units, then the new point you land on is (1, 10) as you can see in the picture below. hope this helped!
Step-by-step explanation:
lines which do not intersect are always parallel and the answer will be parallel lines only...
Let a, b, and c be the times each pump will fill the tank when working alone.
Therefore, in 1 hour;
1/a +1/b = 1/(6/5) = 5/6 ---- (1)
1/a+1/c = 1/(3/2) = 2/3 ---- (2)
1/b+1/c = 1/(2) = 1/2 ---- (3)
From equation (1)
1/a = 5/6-1/b
Substituting for 1/a in eqn (2)
5/6-1/b+1/c = 2/3
-1/b +1/c = -1/6 => 1/c = 1/b - 1/6 --- (4)
Using eqn (4) in eqn (3)
1/b+1/b-1/6 = 1/2
2/b-1/6 = 1/2
2/b =1/2+1/6 = 2/3
1/b = 1/3
Then,
1/c = 1/3 - 1/6 = 1/6
1/a = 5/6 - 1/3 = 1/2
This means, in 1 hour and with all the pumps working together, the tank will be filled to;
1/a+1/b+1/c = 1/2+1/3+1/6 = 1 (filled fully).
Therefore, it will take 1 hour to fill the tank when all pumps are working together.
