X + y = 25
x is the smaller number.
y is the smaller number plus 9 (x + 9).

x + (x + 9) = 25
2x + 9 = 25
2x = 16
x = 8

8 + y = 25
y = 17

The numbers are 8 and 17.

X and y are the numbers
sum is 25 so
x+y=25

x is bigger than y by 9
x=y+9
subsitue y+9 for x

x+y=25
y+9+y=25
2y+9=25
minus 9 both sides
2y=16
divide by 2
y=8

sub back
x=y+9
x=8+9
x=17

the numbers are 8 and 17

If y varies directly with x and y = 2 when x = 10, then what is the value of y when x = 40? A. 8 B. 45 C. 200 D. 320
Leto [7]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

given that y varies directly with x then the equation relating them is

y = kx ← k is the constant of variation

to find k use the given condition y = 2 when x = 10

k = \frac{y}{x} = \frac{2}{10} = \frac{1}{5}

y = \frac{1}{5} x ← equation of variation

when x = 40, then

y = \frac{1}{5} × 40 = 8 → A

When performing today's experiment, your lab partner decides to add all the reagents into one beaker instead of two separate bea
ankoles [38]
<span>So before we can participate in our Chem labs, we need to answer questions regarding the experiment. I'm not the best at Chemistry and I'm having some trouble with this one problem. Here's the experiment's instructions (Part A) And the problem, "When performing today’s experiment, your lab partner decides to add all the reagents into one beaker instead of two separate beakers. After adding everything together and waiting a significant amount of time, you see no reaction occur. What was the problem?" Could it be that all of the separate beakers form different mixtures and just adding everything together at once doesn't allow that to happen? I have honestly have no clue, any help is appreciated</span>
