Hey there :)

Let us translate the words into mathematics!

The difference of 2 numbers is 3
x - y = 3

The sum of 2 numbers is 13
x + y = 13

(eq. 1) x - y = 3
(eq.2) x + y = 13
eq. 1 + eq.2 ⇒ x - y = 3
                     + x + y = 13   ( -y and +y cancels out )
                       2x = 16
                        \frac{2x}{2} = \frac{16}{2}
                       x = 8

We have the value of x, simply substitute it in either of the formulae to find y

x - y = 3 , 8 - y = 3 , 8 - 3 = y , 5 = y
x + y = 13 , 13 - 8 = y , 5 = y

x = 8 , y = 5

Add. 3x^2 -5x +1 + 2x^2 +9x -6
g100num [7]

Answer:

=5x^2+4x−5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's simplify step-by-step.

3x2−5x+1+2x2+9x−6

=3x2+−5x+1+2x2+9x+−6

Combine Like Terms:

=3x2+−5x+1+2x2+9x+−6

=(3x2+2x2)+(−5x+9x)+(1+−6)

=5x2+4x+−5

Hi!
Alrighty, so there are 5 sets of 50 in 250 (250 divided by 50), so just take 50 times 12 and get 60! Hope that helped :)

All the dimensions of a triangle were multiplied by the same factor. If the base of the triangle went from 1 centimeter to 3 cen
timama [110]
The answer is 9.

To calculate this, we will use Galileo's square cube law, used to describe the change of the area or the volume of the shape, when their dimensions increase or decrease. The formula used for change of the area is
A_2= A_1 (\frac{l_2}{l_1} )^{2}
A₂ - the area after the change,
A₁ - the area before the change,
l₂ - the dimension after the change,
l₁ - the dimension before the change.


It is given:
l₁ = 1 cm
l₂ = 3 cm

Let's use this formula for the mentioned triangle:
A_2=A_1( \frac{l_2}{l_1}) ^{2}  =A_1( \frac{3}{1})^{2} =A_1*3 ^{2} =9A_1

Therefore, the area of the triangle was multiplied by 9.

Sam ran 63,756 feet in 70 minutes. What is sam’s rate in mile per hour
Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

10 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

there are 60 minutes in an hour once you covert you have that it took 1.17 hours then there are 5280 feet in a mile so you convert and get 12.075 miles

you divide

12.075/1.17 = 10.3205128

then you simplify to the nearest whole number and get 10
