Step-by-step explanation:
1)
Let x=larger number
y=smaller number
x+y=59
x-y=13
Now adding these two equations we get
2x=72
x=36
Now as x-y=13
y=x-13=36-13=23
y=23
Therefore the larger number is 36 and the smaller number is 23
(or else u could also write)
The numbers are 36 and 23
---------------------------------------------
2)
Let x=first number
y=Second number
x+y=15
2x-y=6
Now adding these two equations we get
3x=21
x=7
Now as x+y=15,
y=15-x=15-7=8
y=8
Therefore the first number is 7 and the second number is 8
-------------------------------------------
3)
Let x=Larger number
y=smaller number
x-y=3
x-3y=-11
Now on subtracting these two equations we get
2y=14
y=7
Now as x-y=3,
x=y+3=7+3=10
x=10
Therefore the larger number is 10 and the smaller number is 7

The tree diagram is constructed and attached below in the image.
First we have to make a choice out of 3 subjects, so the probability of choosing art as the first subject is 1/3.
Once we have chosen art as the first subject, we have two choices. So the probability of choosing each option now is 1/2. Thus, the probability of choosing math, science is 1/2.
The probability of choosing the projects in order of art, math, science = 1/3 x 1/2 = 1/6
Therefore, the probability that the projects are in order of art, math, science is 1/6 (one over 6). So first option gives the correct answer.
Answer:
1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Bridgette ate 1/4 of the pie, and 25% of the pie.
25% is converted to 1/4.
1/4 + 1/4 = 1/2.
1 - 1/2 = 1/2.
Bridge did NOT eat 1/2 of the pie.
