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>

Find the value of the lettered angles in each of the following ( see image ).
Arisa [49]

Step-by-step explanation:

here's the solution :-

1.) =》f = 90°

( because angle made by diameter on circumference of the circle measures 90° )

2.) =》here,

g + f + 56° = 180°

( because the sum of all interior angles of the triangle measures 180° )

=》g + 90° + 56° = 180°

=》g + 146° = 180°

=》g = 180° - 146°

=》g = 34°

3.) h = 56°

( since, they form alternate interior pair which are equal )

29. The function f(t) =-16t^2 + 35 gives the height, f (in feet) of a ball t seconds after being dropped from a height of 35 fee
Nostrana [21]

The time taken for the ball to fall a distance of 10feet is 1.25secs

Given the function modeled by the height expressed as:

f(t) =-16t² + 35

In order to determine the time taken by the all to fall a distance of 10 feet, hence;

f(t) = 10

10 = -16t² + 35

-16t² = 10 - 35

-16t² = -25

-t² = -25/16

t² = 25/16

t = √25/16

t = 5/4

t = 1.25secs

Hence the time taken for the ball to fall a distance of 10feet is 1.25secs
