X + y = 61
y - 3x = 5...y = 3x + 5

x + (3x + 5) = 61
4x + 5 = 61
4x = 61 - 5
4x = 56
x = 56/4
x = 14

y - 3x = 5
y - 3(14) = 5
y - 42 = 5
y = 42 + 5
y = 47

ur 2 numbers are 14 and 47

10(x+1) = 56 - 2(x-1) what’s the equation
bixtya [17]

Answer:x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve

10(x+1)=56-2(x-1)

Open the brackets

The perimeter of a rectangle is 25 2/5 ft. The length is
Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

Width = 4.85 feet

Length = 7.85 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Perimeter of a rectangle = 25 2/5 ft = 25.4 feet

Length = 3 + Width

Computation:

Assume;

Width = a

So,

Length = 3 + a

Perimeter of a rectangle = 2(l + b)

25.4 = 2[(3 + a) + a]

25.4 = 2[3 + 2a]

25.4 = 6 + 4a

4a = 19.4

a = 4.85

Width = 4.85 feet

Length = 3 + 4.85

Length = 7.85 feet

If AABC ~ AEDC, find the value of x.<br> a. 32<br> 5.8<br> C. 40<br> d. 15
alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

x = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

If ABC similar to EDC then we can use the similarity ratio to find the value of x

32/(3x-5) = 56/(5x-5) cross multiply the fractions

160x - 160 = 168x - 280 export like terms to the same side of the equation

280 - 160 = 168x - 160x

120 = 8x divide both sides by 8

15 = x
