Let us say that the numbers are x and y. The given clues are:

1. x – y = 16         (so x is the larger number)

2. y / x = 5 / 7

 

rewriting eqtn 2 in terms of y:

y = (5/7) x

 

combining 1 and 2:

x – (5/7) x = 16

(2/7) x = 16

x = 56

 

y = (5/7) x = 40

 

So the two numbers are 56 and 40.

Answer:

56 times

Step-by-step explanation:

P(red & red) = 0.5×0.6 = 0.3

Expected no. = no. Of trials × p

No. of trials: 84/0.3 = 280

P(blue & blue) = 0.5×0.4 = 0.2

Expected no. = 280 × 0.2

= 56

hypotenuse = ?

8² + 6² = c²
64 + 36 = c²
100 = c²
√100 = √c²
10 = c

sin ∠BOC = opposite / hypotenuse
sin ∠BOC = 8 / 10 
sin ∠BOC = 0.80

tan ∠BOC = opposite / adjacent
tan ∠BOC = 8 / 6
tan ∠BOC = 1.33
