Answer:

\Huge \boxed{\mathrm{49 \ and \ 118}}

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the first number be x

Let the second number be y

x+y=167

y=3x-29

Applying substitution method.

x+3x-29=167

Combining like terms.

4x-29=167

Adding 29 to both sides.

4x=196

Dividing both sides by 4.

x=49

Substituting x = 49 for the second equation.

y=3(49)-29

Multiplying the numbers.

y=147-29

Subtracting.

y=118

The two required numbers are 49 and 118.

Answer:

49 and 118

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the two numbers be x and y

x+y = 167

y = 3x-29

Substitute into the first equation

x+ 3x-29 = 167

Combine like terms

4x - 29 = 167

add 29 to each side

4x = 167+29

4x = 196

Divide by 4

4x/4 = 196/4

x = 49

x+y = 167

49+y = 167

y = 167-49

y =118

What's the equation of the line that's a perpendicular bisector of the segment connecting C (6, –12) and D (10, –8)? answers: A)
vitfil [10]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Perpendicular bisector of a line divides the line into 2 equal parts and it is perpendicular to the line.

First let's find the midpoint of CD. The point is where the perpendicular bisector will cut through the line.

midpoint= ( \frac{x1 + x2}{2} ,  \frac{y1 + y2}{2} )

Thus, midpoint of CD

= ( \frac{6 + 10}{2} , \frac{ - 12 - 8}{2} ) \\  = ( \frac{16}{2} , \frac{ - 20}{2} ) \\  = (8, - 10)

Gradient of line CD

=  \frac{y1 - y2}{x1 - x2}  \\  =  \frac{ - 12 -  ( - 8)}{6 - 10}  \\  =  \frac{ - 12 + 8}{ - 4} \\  =  \frac{ - 4}{ - 4}  \\  = 1

The product of the gradients of perpendicular lines is -1.

gradient if perpendicular bisector(1)= -1

gradient of perpendicular bisector= -1

y=mx +c, where m is the gradient and c is the y-intercept.

y= -x +c

Subst a coordinate to find c.

<em>Since the perpendicular bisector passes through the point (8, -10):</em>

When x=8, y= -10,

-10= -8 +c

c= -10 +8

c= -2

Thus, the equation of the perpendicular bisector is y= -x -2.

4) From a graphed linear line, how do you find the<br> Slope:<br> Y-intercept:
Ad libitum [116K]

Rise over Run

Put the amount you go up or down on the Y-axis over how much you go right or the x-axis

the Y-intercept is found simply by looking where the graph crosses the y, if the equation is written instead of graphed, graph it using a graphing calculator, then use the information I gave you previously : )

HELP WILL MARK BRAINLIEST!
denpristay [2]

Answer:

All the exponents in the algebraic expression must be non-negative integers in order for the algebraic expression to be a polynomial. As a general rule of thumb if an algebraic expression has a radical in it then it isn't a polynomial

so no its not.
