36 and 48

a = b+12
a+b = 84

(b+12) + b =84
2b +12 = 84
2b = 72
b= 36

a = b + 12
a = 36 + 12
a = 48

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x= -1 and -3

What when multiplied is +3 but when added is 4? 3 and 1. You then get (x+3)(x+1) is the first part of the answer. If you want to find x, set x+3 to 0. x+3=0. Then subtract 3 from both sides to get x by itself. x= -3. Do the same with the x+1.

Answer:

$\boxed{4 : 1}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Colored Fabric = 48 mm

White Fabric = 1.2 cm

Ratio of white fabric to colored fabric is:

48 mm : 1.2 cm

To express any ratio, we need to equalize the units ( 1 cm = 10 mm)

=> 48 mm : 12 mm

÷12 ÷12

=> 4 : 1
