Let the numbers be x and y
x= y-2.... (1)
and, 2y = 16 + 4x.... (2)
putting the value of x from (1) in (2),
2y = 16 + 4x
=> 2y = 16 + 4(y-2)
=> 2y = 16 + 4y - 8
=> 2y = 8 + 4y
=> 2y - 4y = 8
=> -2y = 8
=> y =-8/2
=> y= -4
and x = -4-2 = -6
hence , in short the numbers are -2 and -4
Answer:
a) 47
b) 3
c) 1
d) 2
e) 47
f) 3
Step-by-step explanation:

Intersection of the first two lines:
Multiply the first equation by 4 and the second by 5:
Subtract the two equations:
Plug this value for y in one of the equation, for example the first:
So, the first point of intersection is 
We can find the intersection of the other two lines in the same way: we start with
Use the fact that x and y are the same to rewrite the second equation as
And since x and y are the same, the second point is 
So, we're looking for a line passing through and . We may use the formula to find the equation of a line knowing two of its points, but in this case it is very clear that both points have the same coordinates, so the line must be 
In the attached figure, line 
is light green, line 
is dark green, and their intersection is point A.
Simiarly, line 
is red, line 
is orange, and their intersection is B.
As you can see, the line connecting A and B is the red line itself.
Answer:
-37.5 m
Step-by-step explanation:
If we assume that "one full day" is 24 hours, then 15 hours represents the fraction 15/24 of a day. Since the drilling rate was constant, and was presumed to start from a height of 0, the height after 15 hours is that fraction of the day's work:
... (15/24)×(-60 m) = -37.5 m
I would say 2. As the line of best fit is supposed to represent the average of all the data points. It's not nessecarily needed to go through every point.
