Cant you just type that in the calculator 18 times lol
Step-by-step explanation:
use a calculator
Answer:
14 and 10
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio of the 2 numbers = 7x : 5x
The sum of the 2 numbers is 24, hence
7x + 5x = 24
12x = 24 ( divide both sides by 12 )
x = 2
7x = 7 × 2 = 14
5x = 5 × 2 = 10
Thus the numbers are 14 and 10

Answer:
System of Equations
Step-by-step explanation:
A system of equations refers to a number of equations with an equal number of variables. We will only look at the case of two linear equations in two unknowns. The bracket on the left indicates that the two equations are intended to be solved simultaneously, but it is not always used.
We assume all employees are either full-time or part-time.
36 = 24 + 12
If the number of full-time employees is 24 or less, the number of part-time employees must be 12 or more. (Thinking, based on knowledge of sums.)
_____
You can write the inequality in two stages.
- First, write and solve an equation for the number of full-time employees in terms of the number of part-time employees.
- Then apply the given constraint on full-time employees. This gives an inequality you can solve for the number of part-time employees.
Let f and p represent the numbers of full-time and part-time employees, respectively.
... f + p = 36 . . . . . . given
... f = 36 - p . . . . . . . subtract p. This is our expression for f in terms of p.
... f ≤ 24 . . . . . . . . . given
... (36 -p) ≤ 24 . . . . substitute for f. Here's your inequality in p.
... 36 - 24 ≤ p . . . . add p-24
... p ≥ 12 . . . . . . . . the solution to the inequality
