Answer:

14, 22

Step-by-step explanation:

Since there are two different variables, setting up a system of equations and using the elimination method will eliminate one variable and allow you to solve.  

First equation:  'the sum of two numbers is 36'

x + y = 36

Second equation:  'twice the first number minus the second is 6'

2x - y = 6

Elimination (add equations):

 x + y = 36

+<u> 2x - y = 6</u>

  3x = 42

    x = 14

Solve for 'y':  

14 + y = 36

y = 22

The bottom of Ignacio's desktop is 74.5cm from the floor. Ignacio's sits in his adjustable chair, and the tops of his legs are 4
dsp73

Answer:

Ignacio can make 5 clockwise rotations.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the Ignacio's legs are already at a height of 49.3cm and each rotation of the chair knob raises his legs another 4.8cm, we can set up an inequality to determine the number of rotations Ignacio could make without his legs touching the desk, which is at a height of 74.5cm:

4.8r + 49.3 < 74.5  where 'r' is equal to the number of rotations

The sum of the Ignacio's original leg height plus the amount of height increased from the rotations of the know must be less than 74.5 in order for his legs not to touch.  Now, solve for 'r':

Subtract 49.3 from both sides:  4.8r + 49.3 - 49.3 < 74.5 - 49.3 or 4.8r < 25.2

Divide 4.8 from both sides:  4.8r/4.8 < 25.2/4.8 or  r < 5.25

Since the number of rotations must be less than 5.25, he can make 5 complete rotations.

Micah invested $3450 in an account paying simple interest. At the end of 6 years, the value of
tatuchka [14]
Answer: 2.5%

3967.50 - 3450 = 517. 50

i = prt/100

i = 517.50, p = 3450, t = 6

517.50 = 3450 x r x 6/ 100

517.50 = 20700r/100

517.50 = 20700r

517.50/20700 = r

r = 0.025 = 2.5%
