Answer:

44 and 110

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of the 2 numbers = 2 : 5 = 2x : 5x ( x is a multiplier ) , thus

difference = 5x - 2x = 3x , then

3x = 66 ( divide both sides by 3 )

x = 22

Thus

2x = 2 × 22 = 44

5x = 5 × 22 = 110

The 2 numbers are 44 and 110

$f(x) = - {x}^{3} - {x}^{2} + 1$

♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

$f( - 1) = - ({ - 1})^{3} - ({ - 1})^{2} + 1 \\$

$f( - 1) = - ( - 1) - (1) + 1$

$f( - 1) = 1 - 1 + 1$

$f( - 1) = 2 - 1$

$f( - 1) = 1$

Anne-marienhas saved 9 dollars for a new coat that is 1/6 as much money as she needs how much does the coat cost

Tatiana [17]

Answer:

Cost of the coat = $54

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

She saved = $ 9

To Find:

Cost of the coat = ?

Solution:

Let the price of coat be x

She saved $9

and according to given condition it is 1/6 of the total money she needs for buying coat

by this we have

$\frac{1}{6}*x = 9$

Multiplying both sides by 6

$\frac{1}{6}*x*6 = 9*6$

it becomes

x = 9*6

x = $54

As x is the amount she needs

Cost of the coat = $54

Same as my other question If one kilogram is 2.2 pounds. How many kilograms is 5.5 pounds?

Dvinal [7]

Answer:

2.5 kilograms

Step-by-step explanation:

Since 2 kilograms would be 4.4 pounds, subtract 4.4 from 5.5.

Then, you'd get 1.1

So, since 1.1 is half of 2.2, you can assume that 1.1 is half of a kilogram.

Then, add half a kilogram with 2 kilograms to get 2.5 kilograms.

Hope this helps!
