Answer: 28 and 18

Step-by-step explanation:

I used the guess and test strategy to find that:  

28 - 10 = 18

28 + 18 = 46

X + y = 46
x - y = 10
*add these 2 equations

x + y + x - y = 46 + 10
2x = 56
x = 28

x - y = 10
28 - y = 10
*subtract 28 from both sudes
- y = 10 - 28
*multiply by -1
y = 28 - 10
y = 18

Can you please help me answer this question what's a+3
Inessa [10]

Answer:

a+3

Step-by-step explanation:

You cannot go any further in answering this question.  These two terms are not like terms so they cannot be combined.  Therefore, the answer is just a+3 itself.

Consider the expression 25 – 10 ÷ 2 + 3.
Tems11 [23]

Given:

The expression is:

25-10\div 2+3

To find:

Part A: The expression using parentheses so that the expression equals 23.

Part B: The expression using parentheses so that the expression equals 3.

Solution:

Part A:

In option A,

(25-10)\div 2+3=15\div 2+3

(25-10)\div 2+3=7.5+3                       [Using BODMAS]

(25-10)\div 2+3=10.5

In option B,

25-10\div (2+3)=25-10\div 5

25-10\div (2+3)=25-2                      [Using BODMAS]

25-10\div (2+3)=23

In option C,

(25-10)\div (2+3)=15\div 5

(25-10)\div (2+3)=3

In option D,

25-(10\div 2)+3=25-5+3

25-(10\div 2)+3=28-5                     [Using BODMAS]

25-(10\div 2)+3=23

After the calculation, we have 25-10\div (2+3)=23 and 25-(10\div 2)+3=23.

Therefore, the correct options are B and D.

Part B: From part A, it is clear that

(25-10)\div (2+3)=3

Therefore, the correct option is C.

What is the distance between the points ( − 4 , 5 ) and ( 8 , 9 ) ?
anygoal [31]

Answer:

Sqrt of 160

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance, try to think it as a triangle, so you will find out that the distance equals the sqrt of(8-(-4))^2 + (9-5)^2, so it will be sqrt of(144+16) which is sqrt of 160, so the answer will be sqrt of 160

Two isosceles triangles have the same base length. the legs of one of the triangles are twice as long as the legs of the other.
Makovka662 [10]
An isosceles triangle is a type of triangle where 2 sides are equal.

Picture out 2 triangles with the same base length. 
On the first triangle, its legs are twice the length of the legs of the second triangle.

To put it into variables, let:
     B = the same base length of the two triangles
     A = the length of one leg the smaller triangle
    2A = the length of one leg of the bigger triangle

Given:    Perimeter of smaller triangle = 23cm
              Perimeter of bigger triangle = 43cm

Recall the formula for solving the perimeter of a triangle:
      Perimeter = A + B + C
   
where, A, B, and C are the legs of the triangle

Since the triangle involved is an isosceles triangle, therefore, we can say that
        Perimeter = 2A + B     ,   2 legs are equal ( A=C )

Substituting the given perimeter value to the formula. 
   
23cm = 2A + B                    ⇒   equation 1  (smaller triangle)
43cm = 2(2A) + B                ⇒   equation 2  (bigger triangle)

Simplifying equation 2.
                                    43cm = 4A + B
  (rearranging)             B = 43cm - 4A        ⇒ equation 3

Substituting equation 3 to equation 1:
   (equation 1)              23cm = 2A + B
                                    23cm = 2A + (43cm - 4A)
                                    23cm = -2A + 43cm
                                    2A = 43cm - 23cm
                                    2A = 20cm  ⇒   length of the leg of the bigger triangle
                                     A = 10cm   ⇒   length of the leg of the smaller triangle

To solve for the base length, just substitute the value of A to equation 3
     (equation 3)       B = 43cm - 4A
                               B = 43cm - 4(10cm)
                               B = 3 cm

Final Answer:

• For the smaller triangle, the length of the sides are 10cm, 10cm, and 3cm
• For the bigger triangle, the length of the sides are 20cm, 20cm, and 3cm
