we dont know what is the two numbers so let us assume that one is x and other is y

so the sum of two numbers will be x+y which is equal to 51

x+y=51

and their difference is 9

x-y=9

so now we have two equations we can solve this by elimination method.

x+y=51 x-y=9

we know that we have -y and +y which is same value with opposite sign so we can cancel it and x+x will be 2x and 51+9=60

2x=60 x=30

we can plug x=30 in any one of the equations

x+y=51 30+y=51 y=21

x=30,  y=21

How many 'words' can be made from the name ESTABROK with no restrictions
Bumek [7]

The number of ways in which the name 'ESTABROK' can be made with no restrictions is 40, 320 ways.

<h3>How to determine the number of ways</h3>

Given the word:

ESTABROK

Then n = 8

p = 6

The formula for permutation without restrictions

P = n! ( n - p + 1)!

P = 8! ( 8 - 6 + 1) !

P = 8! (8 - 7)!

P = 8! (1)!

P = 8 × 7 × 6 × 5 × 4 × 3 × 2 × 1 × 1

P = 40, 320 ways

Thus, the number of ways in which the name 'ESTABROK' can be made with no restrictions is 40, 320 ways.

A pilot can travel 540 miles with the wind in the same amount of time as 380 miles against the wind. Find the speed of the wind
stepladder [879]
T=d/v

540/(230+w)=380/(230-w)

540(230-w)=380(230+w)

124200-540w=87400+380w

124200-920w=87400

-920w=-36800

w=40

So the wind speed is 40 miles per hour.

a machinist can produce 114 parts in 6 minutes. at this rate, how many parts can the machinist produce in 15 minutes ​
Lynna [10]

Answer:

285!

Step-by-step explanation:

First you have to find out how may parts are produced in a single minute.

We know that 114 parts are produced in 6 minutes so to find how may parts are made in one minute divide 114 by 6 and get an answer of 19

114÷6=19

Now to find how may parts are produced in 15 minutes multiply 19 (number of parts produdced in one minute) by 15 and get an answer of 285!

19×15=285

Hope this helped! :)

If the measures of two angles of a triangle are 87 and 17 ​, what is the measure of the third​ angle
Serhud [2]

Answer:

76 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

The total of the three angles in a triangle should equal 180 degrees. So to find the third angle, subtract the two given angles from 180

180 - 87 = 93

93 - 17 = 76

The third angle is 76 degrees because then all angles will add up to 180
