First of all, x>y
x-y=40
and
x+y=66
add them equations together to eliminate

x-y=40
<u>x+y=66 +</u>
2x+0y=106

2x=106
divide by 2
x=53

sub back
x-y=40
53-y=40
minus 53 both sides
-y=-13
y=13


the numbers are 53 and 13

How are adding and subtracting decimals different from multiplying decimals
statuscvo [17]
In bmultiplying, you always have to move the decimal of the product the amount of place values the decimal has in each factor, for example, 1.50 times 1.50= 2.25, the factors together have 4 decimals, so you move the decimal 4 times to the right (try it, it gets rid of alot of zeros in the answer.)

LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

30 basketballs

Step-by-step explanation:

one layer would be 3 x 2 = 6

  • to find how much you would need to cover the bottom of the locker, you would use the numbers 3 and 2, then multiply them and you get 6. You would need 6 basketballs to cover the bottom of the locker. That would be your first layer

5 layers would be 6 x 5 = 30

  • So the bottom would be filled with 6 basketballs. Now since the locker is 5 feet high multiply 6 x 5 and that would get you your total of basketballs
