Answer: a=36; b=18


Step-by-step explanation:

1. You know that the sum of two numbers is 54, then, you have:

a+b=54

2. According to the problem, the larger number is 18 more than the sampler number, this can be expressed as following:

a=b+18

3. Then, you must substitute the second equation into the first equation and solve for b:

b+18+b=54

b=18

4. Then the value of a is:

a+18=55

a=36

Answer:

7x - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

3x is the number of bags of pretzels ← 3 times the number of bags of chips

3x - 2 is the number of bags of nachos ← 2 less than bags of pretzels

total snacks bought = x + 3x + 3x - 2 = 7x - 2

Describe at least two similarities between constructing a perpendicular line through a point on a line and constructing a perpen
Vitek1552 [10]

The similarities between constructing a perpendicular line through a point on a line and constructing a perpendicular through a point off a line include:

  • Both methods involve making a 90-degree angle between two lines.
  • The methods determine a point equidistant from two equidistant points on the line.

<h3>What are perpendicular lines?</h3>

Perpendicular lines are defined as two lines that meet or intersect each other at right angles.

In this case, both methods involve making a 90-degree angle between two lines and the methods determine a point equidistant from two equidistant points on the line.

3/4 picked apples. If 120 students picked apples, how many picked bananas
Oxana [17]

Answer:

40 students picked bananas

Step-by-step explanation:

3/4 picked apples    

1 - 3/4 = 1/4 picked bananas

3/4x = 120

Multiply both sides of the equation by 4/3

4/3 * (3/4x) = 120/1 * (4/3)

x = 480/3

x = 160

                                               Total of 160 students

                                               /                                   \

                                   120 = apples                  160 - 120 = 40 = bananas

40 students picked bananas

Hope this helps :)
