Hello there.

<span>One number is 4 less than a second number. twice the second number is 16 less than 5 times the first. find the two numbers
</span>
Answer: Call the first number x.
First number is x.
Second number is x + 4.
This is the equation presented.
2(x + 4) = 5x - 16.
2x + 8 = 5x - 16.
16 + 8 = 5x - 2x
24 = 3x
x = 8.
x + 4 = 12.
The two numbers are 8 and 12.

Hope This Helps You!

Which triangle has a bigger area:
irakobra [83]

Hello there!

Answer:

Triangle 2

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine which triangle has the bigger area, we would need to figure our the area of the triangles.

To solve for the area of the triangles, we would use the formula length × width × height or l × w × h

They gave us the information to the triangles in the question, so we would just solve.

Triangle 1: 300 *400*500= 60,000,000

Triangle 2: 300*400*700=84,000,000

When you finish solving, you would see that triangle 2 has the bigger area.

Triangle 2 would be the CORRECT answer because it has a bigger area than Triangle 1.

Answer:

Step-by-steplanation:

Add: 1

2

+ 2

5

= 1 · 5

2 · 5

+ 2 · 2

5 · 2

= 5

10

+ 4

10

= 5 + 4

10

= 9

10

For adding, subtracting, and comparing fractions, it is suitable to adjust both fractions to a common (equal, identical) denominator. The common denominator you can calculate as the least common multiple of the both denominators - LCM(2, 5) = 10. In practice, it is enough to find the common denominator (not necessarily the lowest) by multiplying the denominators: 2 × 5 = 10. In the next intermediate step the fraction result cannot be further simplified by cancelling.

In words - one half plus two fifths = nine tenths.

Conversion a mixed number 6 2

7

to a improper fraction: 6 2/7 = 6 2

7

= 6 · 7 + 2

7

= 42 + 2

7

= 44

7

To find new numerator:

a) Multiply the whole number 6 by the denominator 7. Whole number 6 equally 6 * 7

7

= 42

7

b) Add the answer from previous step 42 to the numerator 2. New numerator is 42 + 2 = 44

c) Write previous answer (new numerator 44) over the denominator 7.

Six and two sevenths is forty-four sevenths

Add: the result of step No. 1 + 44

7

= 9

10

+ 44

7

= 9 · 7

10 · 7

+ 44 · 10

7 · 10

= 63

70

+ 440

70

= 63 + 440

70

= 503

70

For adding, subtracting, and comparing fractions, it is suitable to adjust both fractions to a common (equal, identical) denominator. The common denominator you can calculate as the least common multiple of the both denominators - LCM(10, 7) = 70. In practice, it is enough to find the common denominator (not necessarily the lowest) by multiplying the denominators: 10 × 7 = 70. In the next intermediate step the fraction result cannot be further simplified by cancelling.

In words - nine tenths plus forty-four sevenths = five hundred three seventieths.
