Answer:

103 and 68

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

A + B = 171

A - B = 35

Add the two expressions to eliminate B.

B + (-B) = B - B = 0

We have

2A = 206

Divide both sides by 2 to isolate A

2A/2 = 206/2

A = 103

Now substitute 103 for A in either expression to get B

Using the first expression , we have

A + B = 171

103 + B = 171

Subtract 103 from both sides

103 - 103 + B = 171 - 103

B = 68

The numbers are 103 and 68

Check

103 + 68 = 171

103 - 68 = 35

Answer:

103 and 68

Step-by-step explanation:

since the difference has to be 35 subtract 35 from 171 (equals 136) then divide it by 2, you get 68 which is your first number, then add 35 back and get 103 for the second number, I hope this helped

kipiarov [429]

Answer: I would say 5 days.

Step-by-step explanation:

I added both days together and divided by 2 because there are two individuals working on 20 trees and divided equally it would be 10 and it would take 5 days because that’s half.

Answer:

8 3/4 cups of sugar

Step-by-step explanation:

1 batch of chocolate chip cookies ↔ 2 1/2 cups of sugar

3 1/2 batch of chocolate chip cookies ↔ 3 1/2 * 2 1/2 cups of sugar

3 1/2 * 2 1/2 = 7/2 * 5/2 = 35/4 = 8 3/4 = 8.75

Mark all true statements. Group of answer choices
laiz [17]

Answer:

True

False

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The first statement is the basis for Euclid's algorithm to compute the gcd of two nonnegative integers a,b. You can prove this as follows.

Let G=gcd(a,b). Since r=a-bq and G divides a and G divides b, then G divides r. Now, G divides a and G divides r, hence G divides gcd(b,r).

On the other hand, since a=bq+r, and gcd(b,r) divides b and r, then gcd(b,r) divides a. Therefore gcd(b,r) divides a and b, which implies that gcd(b,r) divides G.

x divides y and y divides x implies that |x|=|y|. The GCD's are nonnegative, therefore G=gcd(b,r).

b) It is false. In general, to test for primality of N, you have to check that all primes smaller than N do not divide N. In this case, we have to check for 2,3,5,7,11,13,17,19,23,...

101 is prime, but this may be false in general. For example, consider N=13*11=143. N is not prime, and n is not divisible by 2,3,5, or 7.

What is 32.043 in expanded form
cestrela7 [59]
<span>for writing 32.043, we first should know more information about such a number, 32.043 is a decimal number, 32 is called the integer part, and 043 is decimal part. So every decimal number can be written as a sum of two or more another decimal numbers, for example, 32.043= 30 + 2 + 0.04 + 0.003.</span>
