The sum of two numbers is 100 and their difference is -20. What are the two numbers?

Mathematics
1 answer:
salantis [7]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

x=40 and y= 60

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>step:1</u>

Let 'x' and 'y' are two numbers

given data the sum of two numbers is 100

x+y = 100......(1)

Given difference of two numbers are

x - y = -20 ......(2)

<u>Step :2</u>

solving the equation (1) and (2)

adding the equations (1) and (2)

x+y+x-y=100-20

cancelling 'y' terms are

2 x = 80

dividing "2" on both sides, we get

x = 40

<u>Step :3</u>

substitute x = 40 in equation (1)

x + y =100

40 + y = 100

subtracting "40" on both sides, we get

40 + y - 40 = 100 -40

y = 60

Final answer:-

The two numbers are x = 40 and y= 60

The sides of an isosceles triangle are 8, 8, and 3. The measure of the vertex angle to the nearest degree is _____°. 44 17 31 22
Doss [256]
We may draw a vertical that bisects the vertex angle and the shorter side of the triangle, to form a right-triangle with the measurements:
hypotenuse = 8
length = 1.5

We may then apply:
sin(∅) = P / H
sin(∅) = 1.5 / 8
∅ = 10.8 ≈ 11°

This is half of the vertex angle, so the vertex angle is:
11 * 2 = 22°

If the values in the table below model a proportional relationship, what is the equation for the function?
Jet001 [13]

Given:

The table represents a proportional relationship.

To find:

The equation of the function.

Solution:

If y is directly proportional to x, then

y\propto x

y=kx     ...(i)

where, k is the constant of proportionality.

From the given table it is clear that the function passes through (2,1). So, the equation must be satisfied by the point (2,1).

Putting x=2 and y=1 in (i), we get

1=k(2)

\dfrac{1}{2}=k

Putting k=\dfrac{1}{2}, we get

y=\dfrac{1}{2}x

Therefore, the correct option is A.
