X is 7 more than y
x>y then
difference betwen squares is 161 so


x=7+y
and
x²-y²=161

so
x=7+y
sub that for x in other equation

(7+y)²-y²=161
y²+14y+49-y²=161
14y+49=161
minus 49 both sides
14y=112
divide both sides by 14
y=8

sub back

x=7+y
x=7+8
x=15

the numbers are 15 and 8

Let n be your first number and n+7 be the second. Then:
n²+161=(n+7)²
n²+161=n²+14n+49
14n=112
n=8
n+7=15
Your two numbers are 8 and 15. ☺☺☺☺

When purchased, the height of a Japanese maple sapling is 14 inches. The tree is expected to grow 2.5 inches each month. Which f
victus00 [196]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The initial height of a Japanese maple sapling is 14 inches.

The tree is expected to grow 2.5 inches each month. This increase in height is linear, thus it is in arithmetic progression.

The expression for arithmetic progression is

Tn = a + (n-1)d

Where a = the first term of the series

d = common difference

Tn is the nth term of the series

n = the number of terms.

From the information given

a = 14 inches because it is the initial height of the tree

d = 2.5 because it is the difference in height between 2 consecutive months

n = m( number of months)

Tn = f(m)

function models the relationship between the height of the tree f(m) and the number of m months of growth will be

f(m) = 14 + 2.5(m-1)

A bucket holds b liters of water. But a jar holds 8 fewer liters than the bucket. How many times can the bucket hold than the ja
kykrilka [37]

Answer:

b / (b - 8)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Litres of water held by bucket = b

Jar holds 8 litres fewer than bucket; hence, litres held by jar = b - 8

The number of times bucket can hold than jar is :

Litres held by bucket / litres held by jar

b / (b - 8)
