Hey there!!
Let's take the number as x and y
Given,
The sum of x and y = 12
One number is 2 more than the other
Let's take y = x + 2
Equations
x + y = 12
As we know y = x + 2 , plug the value in
x + x + 2 = 12
2x + 2 = 12
Subtract 2 on both sides
2x = 10
Divide by 5 on both sides
x = 5
y = 2 + x
y = 7
The numbers are 5 and 7
Hope my answer helps!
Answer:
x > -17/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Write inequality
-2x - 5 < 12
Step 2: Solve for <em>x</em>
<u>Add 5 to both sides:</u> -2x < 17
<u>Divide both sides by -2:</u> x > -17/2
Here, we can see that any number greater than -17/2 would work, so x could equal 01234718905731857013570 if we wanted it to, as long as it is greater than -8.5.
Range = highest - lowest
3000 - (-250) = 3250
Answer:
Total number of sheep Jake have = 542.
Step-by-step explanation:
Jake has number of sheep = 540 (rounded to the nearest ten).
As per rule, "we round the number down to the nearest ten if the last digit of the number is between 0 to 5".
So the number of sheep with Jake may be between 540 to 545.
It is also given in the question that the sum of digits of the number is 11, so the number will be,
5 + 4 + x = 11 (Here x = last digit of the number)
9 + x = 11
x = 11 - 9
x = 2
Therefore, total number of sheep with Jake is 542.
