Let one no. be x , Then according to question other number will be 8x
Now 8x - x = 70
7x = 70
x=10
hence one no is 10 and other 80

Let one of the the numbers be x.

Hence the other number is 8 times the other = 8*x = 8x

The difference between the numbers is 70

8x - x = 70

7x = 70

x = 70/7

x = 10

Since the numbers are x and 8x

x = 10

8*x = 8*10 = 80

So the numbers are 10 and 80.

I hope this helps.

Prove algebraically that (m + 2)2 – m 2 – 12 is always a multiple of 4

Julli [10]

Answer:

$(m + 2)^{2} - m^{2} - 12 = 4(m - 2)$

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

Write the expression

$(m+2)^{2} - m^{2} - 12$

Step 2: Expand $(m + 2)^{2}$

$(m+2)^{2} - m^{2} - 12\\(m+2)(m+2) - m^{2} - 12\\m^{2} + 2m + 2m + 4 - m^{2} - 12$

Step 3: Collect similar terms

$m^{2} - m^{2} + 4m + 4 - 12\\4m - 8$

Step 4: Factor 4 out of the expression to prove that the expression is a multiple of 4.

$Therefore\\4m - 8 = 4(m - 2)\\Hence,\\(m+2)^{2} - m^{2} - 12 is a multiply of 4 because the expression is equal to 4(m-2)$

60 Point Question Answer ASAP! Brainliest to best/first answer

MAVERICK [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

the change rate between the data points gives us the print rate.

so,

(f(x2) - f(x1)) / (x2 - x1)

starting with x1 = 10 and x2 = 15 we see

(133 - 98) / (15 - 10) = 35/5 = 7

that means he is printing 7 pages per minute.

we see that we have the same difference (35 prints) for every following 5-minute interval.

so, that is the confirmed print rate.

and yes, the amount is increasing, of course.

after 10 minutes he has 98 flyers but we know he could have printed only 7×10 = 70 flyers in that time.

so, he started with 98-70 = 28 flyers before actually printing new ones.
