Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the two numbers be denoted by x and y.

1. (x + y) × (x - y) = 85

2. x - y =/= 1

From equation 1,

x^2 - y^2 = 85

x^2 = 85 + y^2

Let y^2 be a perfect square so, the RHS will give a perfect square greater than 85 hence, find x as a perfect square,

y = 6

x^2 = 85 + 36

x = sqrt(121)

= 11

(x + y) × (x - y) = 85

(11 + 6) × (11 - 6)

= 85

Answer:

sum=17

Step-by-step explanation:

(a+b)*(a-b)=85

let a=11 and b=6

(11+6)*(11-6)=85

85=85

so the two whole numbers are 11 and 6

and, their sum is : 11+6=  17.

Let f(x) = 2x – 1, g(x) = 3x, and h(x) = x2 + 1. Compute the following.
Colt1911 [192]
1.  g(-1) =  -3

f(-3) =  2(-3) - 1 =  -7

2. f o h(3) :-
h(3) =  3^2 + 1 = 10
f o h(3) =   2(10) - 1 = 19

3.   f(-5) =  -11
g(f(-5)) = g(-11) = -33

Solve xy - 3 = k solve for x
ladessa [460]

Answer:

x=(k+3)/y

Step-by-step explanation

First, we simplify by adding 3 to both sides of the equation

xy-3+3=k+3

Now it's xy=k+3

To get x we divide both sides by y

So x=(k+3)/y

The probability that a comic book reader in a particular city prefers comics published by Company A is 25%. The probability that
Andrew [12]
We know that 70% of all comic book fans are male, and that 40% of Company A fans are male. 

Since 25% of all comic book fans are company A fans: 
0.4 * 0.25 (meaning 40% of 25%) = 0.1, or 10% of all comic book fans are male company A fans. 

What percentage, then, of male comic book fans are company A fans?
0.1 ÷ 0.7 = 0.142
We divide 10%, the percentage of all comic book fans that are male and company A fans, by the percentage of comic book fans that are male, since we are given that the fan is male. 

Answer is 0.14
