8 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say the two digit number is 10x + y, where x is the first digit and y is the second digit.

The sum of the digits is 8:

x + y = 8

If 8 is subtracted from the number, the digits switch place.

10x + y − 8 = 10y + x

Simplify the second equation:

9x − 8 = 9y

Substitute from the first equation.

y = 8 − x

9x − 8 = 9 (8 − x)

9x − 8 = 72 − 9x

18x = 80

x = 4.444

There's a problem.  x isn't an integer.  Are you sure you copied the problem correctly?  Perhaps you meant if 18 is subtracted from the number, the digits switch place.

9x − 18 = 9 (8 − x)

9x − 18 = 72 − 9x

18x = 90

x = 5

y = 8 − x

y = 3

So the number is 53.

x+y=8\\10x+y-8=10y+x\\\\x+y=8|\cdot9\\9x-9y=8\\\\9x+9y=72\\\underline{9x-9y=8}\\18x=80\\x=\dfrac{80}{18}=\dfrac{40}{9}

x is not integer, so there must be a mistake in the problem.

statuscvo [17]

Answer:

C. The area of the blue circle is equal to the sum of areas of green square and black circle.

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a circle is the circumference of the circle measured with its diameter. In the given scenario the area of the blue circle is greater than the area of black circle. This is because of the difference in diameter of the two circles. The area of green square plus the area of black circle equals the blue circle.

The stem-and-leaf plot shows the ages of people at a family reunion.
klio [65]

Answer:

1) 11

2) 4

Step-by-step explanation:

1) It is 11 because in the first row we ignore the 0 since it is referring to the first digit, so the first row has 7. In the second row, we ignore the one so it would be 4 because the 9, or would be 19, is above 18.

2) It is 4 because there is one person over 65. In the second row we ignore the 7 and there are 3 people in the 7 row.
