Answer: smaller number is 23, larger number is 35

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the smaller number be y

The larger number will be y+12

The addition of the numbers is 58.

y+(y+12) = 58

y+y+12 = 58

2y+12 = 58

2y= 58-12

2y= 46

y= 46/2

y= 23

The smaller number is 23

Larger number will be 23+12=35

Find the area of the triangle.

madreJ [45]

Start by finding the area of each smaller right triangle.
Right triangle area = (1/2)hb -> h = height & b = base
b = 4 & h = 3
(1/2)(4)(3) = 6
6*2 = 12 (there are two right triangles)
The area of the entire triangle is 12yd^2

Answer:

$5 {x}^{2} + 2x = 7x + 3x \\ 5 {x}^{2} + 2x = 10x \\ 5 {x}^{2} = 10x - 2x \\ 5 {x}^{2} = 8x \\ 5x = 8 \\ x = \frac{8}{5} = 1.6 \\ thank \: you$
