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

What does this sentence mean? Or write the formula

malfutka [58]

Answer:

An odd integer is denoted by 2n+1 where n is an integer.

First odd integer = 2n+1

Next odd integer = 2n+3

8 ≦ (2n+1)+(2n+3) < 24

8 ≦ 2n+1+2n+3 < 24

8 ≦ 4n+4 < 24

Divide through by 4

2 ≦ n+1 < 6

Subtract 1 for all three sides:

1 ≦ n < 5

n ∈ {1,2,3,4}

Answer: {2n+1, 2n+3} {1,3}, {3,5}, {5,7

Lines m and n are parallel and m<1=140* What is m<7?

Arada [10]

$m\angle 7=180-m\angle 5\\
m\angle 5=m\angle 1=140\\
m\angle 7=180-140\\
m\angle 7=40$

Solve x3 = 64 over 27.

const2013 [10]

x^3 = 64/27

x^3 = (4*4*4)/(3*3*3)

x^3 = (4/3)^3

x = 4/3

ans is d
