X + y = 27
x = y + 3

y + 3 + y = 27
2y + 3 = 27
2y = 27 - 3
2y = 24
y = 24/2
y = 12

x = y + 3
x = 12 + 3
x = 15

ur numbers are 12 and 15

Solution:
Let, a number be x and another be x +3.
By question,
x + x +3=27
or, 2x=27-3
or, 2x = 24
or, x = 24/2
or, x = 12
Then,
One number is 12.
And, another number = 12+3= 15.
Hence,
The numbers are 12 and 15.

Hope it helped.

90° clockwise rotation<br> Help please
maria [59]

Answer:

E' (-2,5)

F' (-3,1)

G' (-2,-1)

H' (0,3)

Step-by-step explanation:

The rule for 90 degree clockwise rotation is (h,k) -> (k,-h). This means flip the x-value's sign and then switch x and y's position. For example E (-5,-2), first flip x's sign (5,-2) and then switch x and y's places (-2,5).

The hypotenuse of a right triangle is 15cm, and the shorter leg is 9cm. Find the length of the other leg
pishuonlain [190]

Hello!

If you add up the squares of the two legs, it will equal the square of the hypotenuse. As we already have the hypotenuse, we will subtract.

225-81=144

Now we find the square root.

√144=12

Therefore, the other leg is 12 cm long.

I hope this helps!

IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:  distance = 406 miles

speed = 58 miles/hr

Step-by-step explanation:

4 hours - 232 miles

1 hr - 232/4

7 hours - 232/ 4 x 7 = 406 miles

Therefore , her distance is 406 miles for 7 hours.

Speed = distance / time

speed = 406/7 = 58 miles/hr
