Hi!

<h3>Writing the equation</h3>
  • one number is 36 less

x - 36

  • than another number

x - 36 = y

  • if the sum of the numbers is 104

<u>x + y = 104</u>

  • find the two numbers.

---------------------------------------------------------

<h3>Solving for x</h3>
  • Put the value of y in the second equation.

x + x - 36 = 104

  • Simplify

2x - 36 = 104

  • Add 36 to both sides

2x - 36 + 36 = 104 + 36

2x = 140

  • Divide by 2 on both sides

2x/2 = 140/2

<u>x = 70</u>

-------------------------------------------------

<h3>Solving for y</h3>

70 + y = 104

70 - 70 + y = 104 - 70

<u>y = 34</u>

-------------------------------------------------

<h2>The two numbers are 70 and 34</h2>

Hope this helps! :)

jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

22.97

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the average cost of an IRS Form 1040 tax filing at Thetis Tax Service is $138.00.

Let x be the average cost an IRS Form 1040 tax filing at Thetis Tax Service

P(X is given

From std normal distribution table we find 77th percentile z value.

z=0.74

Corresponding X value = 155

i.e. 0.74=\frac{155-138}{s} where s is the std deviation

Simplify to get

Std deviation  = \frac{17}{0.74} \\=22.97
