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 much 3 1/4+9 3/8
antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:12 5/8

Step-by-step explanation:

Add the whole numbers together. 3 + 9 = 12

Multiply 1/4 so that it will have the same dnominator as 3/8. 2(1/4)= 2/8

Add the fractions together. 2/8 + 3/8 = 5/8.

Add the whole number and fraction to get a mixed number. 12 + 5/8 = 12 5/8

Simplify 6 to the 5th power over 7 to the 3rd power times 2
Anon25 [30]
My answer -

<span>1. Use symbols (not words) to express quotient
 

2. Use exponent symbol (^) to denote exponents

3. Just write out question number, question, and choices. No need for extra information (such as points). Also, don't leave blank lines between choices. This extraneous that we don't need just makes your whole question very very long, and means a lot of scrolling on our part.
 

4. You should only post 2 or 3 questions at a time.


1) (6x^3 − 18x^2 − 12x) / (−6x) = −x^2 + 3x + 2 ----> so much simpler to read !

2) (d^7 g^13) / (d^2 g^7) = d^(7−2) g^(13−7) = d^5 g^6 ----> much easier to read !

3) (4x − 6)^2 = 16x^2 − 24x − 24x + 36 = 16x^2 − 48x + 36

4) (x^2 / y^5)^4 = (x^2)^4 / (y^5)^4 = x^8 / y^20

5) (3x + 5y)(4x − 3y) = 12x^2 − 9xy + 20xy − 15y^2 = 12x^2 + 11xy − 15y^2

6) (3x^3y^4z^4)(2x^3y^4z^2) = (3*2) x^(3+3) y^(4+4) z^(4+2) = 6 x^6 y^8 z^6

7) 5x + 3x^4 − 7x^3 ----> Fourth degree trinomial

8) (5x^3 − 5x − 8) + (2x^3 + 4x + 2) = 7x^3 − x − 6

9) (x − 1) + (2x + 5) − (x + 3) = x + 1

10) (−4g^8h^5k^2)0(hk^2)^2 = 0 (anything multiplied by 0 = 0)
or.. (−4g^8h^5k^2)^0(hk^2)^2 = 1 (h^2 (k^2)^2) = h^2 k^4

Last question shows why it is so important to use proper symbols (such as ^ to indicate exponents). Without such symbols, I could not tell if the 0 was an actual number and part of multiplication, of if 0 was an exponent of the expression preceding it.


P.S

Glad to help you have an AWESOME!!! day :)
