Let one number be x and the other number be y.

The 2 equations are:
x - y = 0.6    --------------- (1)
x/y = 0.6      --------------- (2)

From equation (1):
x - y = 0.6
x = 0.6 + y     --------------- Sub into (2)

\dfrac{0.6 + y}{y} = 0.6

0.6 + y= 0.6y

y - 0.6y = - 0.6

0.4y = - 0.6

y = -0.6 ÷ 0.4

y = -1.5

Sub y = -1.5 into (1):

x - y = 0.6

x - (-1.5) = 0.6

x  + 1.5 = 0.6

x = 0.6 - 1.5

x = - 0.9

Answer: The numbers are -0.9 and -1.5

Answer:

<em>x = 24 </em>

Step-by-step explanation:

The corresponding sides of similar Δs are proportional.

ΔADE ~ ΔABC ⇒ \frac{AD}{AB} = \frac{DE}{BC} = \frac{AE}{AC}

AD = x + 8 ; DE = 8

AB = x ; BC = 6

\frac{x+8}{x} = \frac{8}{6} ⇔ 8x = 6(x + 8) ⇒ <em>x = 24</em>

A low calorie dinner has 480 calories in an 9 ounce serving. What is the unit rate in simplest form? 9/48 160/3 48/9 3/160
LenaWriter [7]

Answer:Hi, the correct answer is \frac{160}{3}.

Step-by-step explanation:

 As you are being asked for rate and the importat value is the number of calories consumed. We need to simplify the fraction \frac{480 calories}{9 ounce} . Then we simplify.

Note that 480 is divisible by 3 and 9 as well. 480/3 = 160 and 9/3 = 3. Therefore, 480/9 = 160/3.
