Let's call the two numbers 
and 
.
Given these variables, we can say: 
, based on the first sentence in the problem.
Also, remember that the reciprocal of a number is simply 1 divided by the number. Thus, we can say that:
To solve, we can simply substitute 
in for in the second equation and solve.
- Get terms on the left side to a common denominator for easier addition
- Cross multiplication (
)
- Subtract
from both sides of the equation
- Factor left side of the equation
Now, notice that we have found two solutions, but the problem is only asking for one. This <em>likely </em>means that one of our solutions is extraneous. Let's take a look. Remember that the smaller positive number is equal to 14 less than the larger number. However,
,
Since is not positive in this case, 
is not a solution.
Thus, 
is our only solution. In this case,
,
which means that the smaller number is 14 and the larger number is 28.
Answer:
5/12
Step-by-step explanation:
You want the tangent of angle F in right triangle FGH with sides FG=24, GH=10, and FH=26.
<h3>Tangent</h3>
The mnemonic SOH CAH TOA is intended to remind you of the relations between trig functions and the sides of a right triangle. The TOA part of this tells you ...
Tangent = Opposite/Adjacent
<h3>Application</h3>
The side opposite angle F is GH = 10.
The side adjacent to angle F is FG = 24.
Then the tangent is ...
tan(F) = GH/FG = 10/24
tan(F) = 5/12 . . . . . reduced to lowest terms
The correct answer is y= 0.513(1.833)^x
Explain
We will use the equation on this form
Y=ab^x
Let’s us plug in the coordinates of first point
(X, y) , ( 9, 120)
We will have
Y=ab^x
120= ab^9
Our equation for a will be
Ab^9 = 120
ab ^9 / b^9 = 120/ b^9
a = 120/ b^9
So will have
Y= 120/ b^9 • b^x
Then we will plug in coordinates for the second point
( x,y) = ( 10, 220)
We will have
Y= 120/b^9 • b^x
220 = 120/b^9 • b^10-9
220= 120b
Divide both side by 120
B= 11/6
B= 1.833333 = 1.833
Let’s plug in the value b=11/6 to our equation for a
A= 120/b^9
A= 120/ 11/6^9
A= 120/11^9/6^9
A=120 • 6^9 / 11^9
= 0.51285 which equal to 0.513
So therefore the answer is
Y= 0.513(1.833)^x
I hope this help you

Answer:
G
Step-by-step explanation:
An integer is a whole number. Round each of your answers to the nearest tenth (for the 5's, you round up), and you see that choice G, 5.5, can be divided by 1.1 to equal 5.
= 18 1/5 + 22 2/5 + 40 1/5
answer is D. last one
