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

mote1985 [20]
Tan(a/2) = sin a / (1 + cos a)
tan(45/2) = sin(45) / (1 + cos(45)) = (1/√2) / (1 + 1/√2) = (1/√2) / (√2 + 1)/√2  = 1/(√2 + 1) = (√2 - 1)

liberstina [14]

Answer:

13,456

Step-by-step explanation:

Tn= a+(n-1)d

a is the first term, n is the given number and d is the common difference. d is given by subtracting the first term from the second term or the second from the third. Therefore the the 59th term of the sequence 29, 37, 45 is,

Tn= 29+(59-1)8

=29(58)8

=13,456

Why does a square with an area 20² not have a whole number side length.
Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

This is because the number '20' is not a perfect square.

Step-by-step explanation:

If you find \sqrt{20}, you will be getting 4.4721935955... which is not a whole number, thus 20 is not a perfect square.
