the answer is 2/3 and the y intercept is 2. we can find the y intercept because its where the line crosses the y axis and the slope by calculating rise and run using 2 points bebe :)
The larger number is 17
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Let "x" be the larger number
Let "y" be the smaller number
<em><u>The difference between of two numbers is 9</u></em>
Therefore,
larger number - smaller number = 9
x - y = 9 -------- eqn 1
<em><u>The large number is one more than twice the smaller number</u></em>
Larger number = 1 + 2(smaller number)
x = 1 + 2y ------ eqn 2
<em><u>Let us solve eqn 1 and eqn 2</u></em>
<em><u>Substitute eqn 2 in eqn 1</u></em>
1 + 2y - y = 9
1 + y = 9
y = 9 - 1
y = 8
<em><u>Substitute y = 8 in eqn 1</u></em>
x - 8 = 9
x = 8 + 9
x = 17
Thus the larger number is 17
Subtract the two numbers to find the measurement of the leftover piece
5.6 - 1.71 = 3.89 feet
Because of rules of geometry we know that a+b=180 degrees so we can add the equations together and set that equal to 180 and solve
6x-48+4x+38=180
subtract 38 from both sides and add 48 to both sides
then add like terms
10x=170
and divide by 10 to get
x=17
