the smaller number is 13 and the larger one is 18.

Let's say that the smaller number is x and the larger one is y.

Giving the equation x + 5 = y

This would also make the equation y^2-x^2= 155

to solve let's simplify to find what y^2 is in x terms.

y^2 = (x+5) (x+5) = x^2 +10x + 25.

therefore x^2 + 10x + 25 -x^2= 155

10x + 25 = 155

10x = 130

x = 13

y = 18

Convert <br> [−1,∞) to inequality notation use the variable x.
Trava [24]

Answer:

-1\leq x

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to convert the interval [-1, ∞) to inequality notation using <em>x</em> as the variable.

The interval [-1, ∞) reads: "All real numbers between -1 and positive infinity."

In other words, it is all numbers greater than or equal to -1 and less than positive infinity.

Therefore:

-1\leq x

Note that we do not use "or equal to" for the infinity as we can never really "equal" infinity.

A museum charges $12.50 for a one-day youth admission and $17.50 for a one-day adult admission. One Friday, the museum collected
tatuchka [14]

Answer:

number of youth admissions sold (x) = 74

number of adult admissions sold (y) = 32

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = number of youth admissions

Let y = number of adult admissions

Given:

  • total number of admissions sold = 106

⇒ x + y = 106

Given:

  • cost of youth admission = $12.50
  • cost of adult admission = $17.50
  • total amount collected = $1485

⇒ 12.5x + 17.5y = 1485

Rewrite  x + y = 106 to make y the subject:

⇒ y = 106 - x

Substitute  y = 106 - x  into 12.5x + 17.5y = 1485 and solve for x:

⇒ 12.5x + 17.5(106 - x) = 1485

⇒ 12.5x + 1855 - 17.5x = 1485

⇒ 5x = 370

⇒ x = 74

Substitute found value of x into y = 106 - x to find y:

⇒ y = 106 - 74

⇒ y = 32
