I think the answer is 5 feet because 2(2+5)= 4+10=14. So the missing length is 5 feet.

One number exceeds another by 44. the sum of the numbers is 24. what are the​ numbers?
baherus [9]

Let, the numbers = x,y

x+y= 24   1st eqn

x-y = 44   2nd eqn

24-y-y = 44

-2y = 44-24

y = 20/-2 = -10

substitute that in equation 1st x = 24+10 = 34

so, the numbers would be 34 & -10

Greeley [361]

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

<u> ASA Postulate (Angle-Side-Angle):</u>

If two angles and the included side of one triangle are congruent to the corresponding parts of another triangle, then the triangles are congruent.

Consider triangles XYB and ZYA. In these triangles

  • ∠X≅∠Z (given)
  • XY≅ZY (given)
  • ∠Y is common angle

By ASA Postulate, triangles XYB and ZYA are congruent. Congruent triangles have congruent corresponding sides, so

BX≅AZ

The ratio of red tacks to blue tacks on the bulletin board is 3 to 5. There are 50 blue tacks. How many red tacks are there?
bazaltina [42]

Answer:

If we want our ratio to stay the same (3 to 5), we'll need to pair a set of 3 blue tacks with every set of 5 red tacks. In a group of 50, we can make 10 groups of 5 red tacks, so we'll also need 10 groups of 3 blue tacks, which gives us a total of 30 blue tacks
