Answer:
first number= 19/5
second number= 2/5
Step-by-step explanation:
first number= a
second number= b
a+3b=5 equation 1
b+2a=8 equation 2
using equation 2 we have
b=8-2a
using equation 1 we have
a+3(8-2a)=5
a+24-6a=5
24-5=6a-a
19=5a
a=19/5 = first number
so using b=8-2a
we have
b=8-2(19/5)
b=8-(38/5)
b=2/5 = second number
There is 2 ways to solve this type of question.
Method 1
--------------------------------------------------
Formula
--------------------------------------------------
a² + b² = c²
--------------------------------------------------
Apply the formula
---------------------------------------------------
(7√2)² + (7√2)² = c²
c² = 98 + 98
c² = 196
c = √196
c = 14
--------------------------------------------------
Ans: The diagonal length is 14cm
--------------------------------------------------

Identify the triangle
--------------------------------------------------
This is a special triangle
45° - 45° - 90°
--------------------------------------------------
Property of the Angles
--------------------------------------------------
x - x - x√2
--------------------------------------------------
Find hypotenuse
--------------------------------------------------
Given that the non-hypotenuse is 7√2
Hypotenuse = (7√2)(√2)
Hypotenuse = 7 x 2
Hypotenuse = = 14cm
--------------------------------------------------
Ans: The diagonal length is 14cm

Answer:
x = 2/11
Step-by-step explanation:
1 ÷ 11/2 = x
1 · 2/11 = x (Used the opposite reciprocal and changed to multiplication. This is the same as dividing with the original fraction.)
2/11 = x
