Hey! :)

Let us make these number be x and y.

x + y = 54

x - y = 26

Now, add these equations to get the following:

2x = 54 + 26 = 80

2x = 80

x = 80/2 = 40

Now, x + y = 54 meaning 40 + y = 54.

Therefore y = 54 - 40 = 14.

Have a great rest of your day :)

Solve the following equation algebraically show the steps: n/3 -5 = 5

Lana71 [14]

$\longrightarrow{\green{ \: n = 30 }}$

$\large\mathfrak{{\pmb{\underline{\red{Step-by-step\:explanation}}{\red{:}}}}}$

$\frac{n}{3} - 5 = 5$

➼ $\: \frac{n}{3} = 5 + 5$

➼ $\: \frac{n}{3} = 10$

➼ $\: n = 10 \times 3$

➼ $\: n = 30$

Therefore, the value of n is 30.

$\large\mathfrak{{\pmb{\underline{\blue{To\:verify}}{\blue{:}}}}}$

$\frac{30}{3} - 5 = 5$

✒ $\: 10 - 5 = 5$

✒ $\: 5 = 5$

✒ $\: L.H.S.=R. H. S$

Hence verified.

Slope= -1/3 passing through (9,-2) point slop form? slope intercept form?

erica [24]

Point slope:
y-(-2)=-1/3(x-9)
slope intercept:
solve the point slope form
y+2 = -1/3x+3
y=-1/3x+1

What value of y makes the 2 triangles congruent by SSS?

aleksandrvk [35]

The triangle was just flipped so the missing side is going to equal 36, so...
2y+20= 36
(Subtract 20 from each side to isolate the 2y)
2y= 16
(Divide each side by 2 to isolate the variable)

ANSWER:
y= 8

${e}^{ln(anything)} = anything$

so here we have:

${e}^{ln1} = 1$

${e}^{ln5x} = 5x$
