The sum of two numbers is six, and the difference is 10. Find the numbers.

1 answer:

3 0

First no. = x
Second no. = y

Equation Formation
x + y = 6..........equation(i)
x - y = 10...........equation (ii)

x = 6 - y
6 - y - y = 10
6 - 2 y = 10
-2 y = 10 -6
-2 y = 4
y = -2

x = 6 + 2
x = 8

Answer = 8 , -2

Answer:

x = 8.75, y = 8.125

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangles are similar thus the ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is

$\frac{8}{5}$ = $\frac{14}{x}$ ( cross- multiply )

8x = 70 ( divide both sides by 8 )

x = 8.75

And

$\frac{8}{5}$ = $\frac{13}{y}$ ( cross- multiply )

8y = 65 ( divide both sides by 8 )

y = 8.125

PLEASEE HELP!! What is the value of x? Enter your answer in the box

madreJ [45]

First we need to figure out how long YK is and the best way to do this is to set up a proportion

34 x
----- = ------
95.2 168

then cross multiply and divide

34 times 168=5712/95.2=60

then add the two parts of the line

60+34=94

X is 94 cm

I hope I've helped!
