Answer:

27 and 39.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the smaller number and y be the larger number.

It is given that sum of two numbers is 66.

x+y=66

y=66-x        .... (1)

Two times the smaller number is 15 more than the larger number.  

2x=15+y         ... (2)

From (1) and (2) we get

2x=15+(66-x)  

2x=81-x  

2x+x=81  

3x=81

Divide both sides by 3.

x=27

Substitute x=27 in equation (1).

y=66-27

y=39

Therefore, the numbers are 27 and 39.

Here is the set up:

Let x and y be the two numbers with x the smaller and y the larger number.

x + y = 66

2x = y + 15

We have two equations in two unknowns.

Take it from here.

A flying squirrel lives in a nest that is 9 meters high in a tree. To reach a fallen acorn that is 4 meters from the base of the
Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

Flying squirrel have to glide is for 9.8 meters approximately.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we can use Pythagoras theorem.

Height is 9 , base is 4.

We need to find the hypotenuse measure.

So, let's use Pythagoras theorem a^{2} +b^{2}= c^{2}

Plug in a as 9 and b 4.

9^{2} +4^{2}=c^{2}

Simplify the left side of the equation

81+16=c^{2}

97=c^{2}

Take square root on both sides.

c=9.8 meters.
