Answer:

58 and 29

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up your equations:

1) x + y = 87

2) x - y = 29

Use one of the equations to focus on when moving the numbers around such as for this one I used equation one:

3) y = -x + 87

x = (-x + <u>87) + 29</u>

x = -x + <u>116</u>

x + x = 116

2x = 116

x = 58

Input your value for x:

4) 58 + y = 87

y = 87 - 58

y = 29

Solve and check if your values are correct:

5) 58 + 29 = 89 correct

58 - 29 = 29 correct

Triangles are similar ,

Thus :

\frac{9}{3}  =  \frac{6}{x}  \\

3 =  \frac{6}{x}  \\

\frac{6}{x}  = 3 \\

Inverse both sides

\frac{x}{6}  =  \frac{1}{3}  \\

Multiply sides by 6

6 \times  \frac{x}{6}  = 6 \times  \frac{1}{3}  \\

x = 2 \times 3 \times  \frac{1}{3}  \\

x = 2

Find the equation of the line passing<br> through the points (3,-2) and (4, 6).<br> y = 8x + [?]
Sauron [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

1.) Plug in one of the points.

y = 8x + b

6 = 8(4) + b

2.) Solve for b (or [?])

6 = 32 + b \\  - 32 \:   \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  - 32

32 cancels out on the right side.

Subtract 32 from 6, which is -26

3.) -26 = b

4.) Check with other point:

-2 = 8(3) + b

-2 = 24 + b

Cancel out 24 on the right side: 24-24 = 0

-2 - 24 = -26

-26 = b
