Let
x--------->  the larger number
y---------> the smaller number

we know that
x+y=148------> equation 1
x=3y-2------> equation 2

substitute 2 in 1
[3y-2]+y=148--------> 4y=150---------> y=150/4------> y=37.5
x=3y-2----> x=3*37.5-2-----> x=110.5

the answer is
the larger number is 110.5
the smaller number is 37.5

What is the area of rhombus ABCD? do not round any steps
katrin2010 [14]
Because ABCD is a rhombus, ΔABC ~ ΔADC.

The length of AC = 4 (the base of ΔABC.
The height of ΔABC = 7 - 1 = 6
The area of ΔABC is
(1/2)*4*6 = 12

Therefore the area of ABCD = 2*12 = 24

Answer: 24

Triangle ABC ~ Triangle DEF. Measure of angle A = 20
marishachu [46]

Answer:

B=95°

E=95°

D=20°

C=65°

BC=7cm

Step-by-step explanation:

the triangles look like they are identical, just different in size only. Since DE= 15 and AB=10 that may mean that they have a 5cm difference making side BC= 7cm since EF= 12 minus 5 equals 7cm. Now for the other angles, a triangle no matter what,if we put all their angles together equal 180°. We already know angle A= 20 so the same applies to angle D. We also know that angle F=65 degrees, that makes angle C the same. The only thing that's left are angles B and E that can be found by adding our other angles. So if A+C(20+65)=85 then 180-85=95 degrees is angle B and since the triangles are identical the same goes to E.

What is the value or (10^-3)(10^5)​
topjm [15]

Answer: 100

Step-by-step explanation:

(10^-3)(10^5)​

1/10^3*10^5 (I applied the negative power rule x^-a=1/x^a)

1/1,000*10^5

1/1,000*100,000

100,000/1,000=100

Hope this helps, HAVE A BLESSED AND WONDERFUL DAY! I also hope you had a great Superbowl Weekend! :-)
