Let b>a

b+a=52 

b=52-a, we are also told that the larger number, b, is 3 times the smaller a:

b=3a, since b=b we can say:

3a=52-a 

4a=52

a=13, and since b=3a

b=39

So the numbers are 13 and 39

<span> Let x be the smaller number.
Then 3x is the larger number.
We also know that the smaller added to the larger is 52, or:
x + 3x = 52
4x =52
x = 13
Therefore the smaller is 13, the larger is 3(13)=39. </span>

Figure D could be formed from the net.

(bottom right)

-Because-

The net says that the middle shape (the bottom face) is 14 long, and it is 8 tall. So the only option that makes sense is the bottom right!

Answer Please! I hate khan academy lol​

Answer:

C; None of the above.

Step-by-step explanation:

Pretend x=1, y=0, and z=2.

You have to match an answer to 1+0-2 (equals to -1).

The first equation would be 2+0+1. When you add them all together you get 3, and that isn't equivalent to -1, so therefore this one is not the answer.

The second equation becomes 1+2+0, and when you solve for the answer, you see that the answer is also 3, and so we can conclude that neither A or B matches with the equation above, so the answer is C, None of the above.

A bicyclist travels 32 kilometers for 2 hours and then and 13 kilometers for the next hour. Calculate the average speed.
GarryVolchara [31]

Answer:

15 km/h

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the speed, divide the total number of kilometers by the total number of hours:

Find the total number of hours:

32 + 13

= 45

Divide this by 3:

45/3

= 15

So, the average speed was 15 km/h
