Answer:

46 and 68

Step-by-step explanation:

so let the first number=x

the second number= 2x-24 since 24 less than twice the first number

then

2x-24+x=114

simplify

3x=114+24

3x=138

x=46

2x-24= 68

20,10,5, ...<br> Find the 9th term.
iren [92.7K]

Answer:

0.078125.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a geometric sequence with first term a1 = 20 and common ratio r = 10/20 = 5/10 = 0.5.

nth term = a1 r^(n -1) so here:

9th term = 20(0.5)^(9-1)

= 20(0.5)^8

= 0.078125.

2 y + 4 x = 8, Solve for y
mash [69]

Answer:

y=−2x+4

Step-by-step:

2y+4x=8

Step 1: Add -4x to both sides.

4x+2y+−4x=8+−4x

2y=−4x+8

Step 2: Divide both sides by 2.

2y /2 = −4x+8 /2

y=−2x+4
