Answer:
17
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the larger number be represented by x
Let the smaller number be represented by y
from the question, the next equations can be gotten :
x - y = 9 equation 1
x = 1 + 2y equation 2
Substitute for x in equation 1
1 + 2y - y = 9
1 + y = 9
Collect like terms
y = 9 - 1
y = 8
Substitute for y in equation 1 and solve for x (the larger number)
x - 8 = 9
x = 9 + 8
x = 17

The fraction of text -3/8 of the cover page
From this fraction of text only 2/5 of the text is about endangered species
We are asked to find out what the fraction of the cover page is that covers endangered species
In this 2/5 of 3/8 is about endangered species
Therefore to obtain the answer we need to multiply the two fractions
2/5 * 3/8
Fraction of the cover page about endangered species is therefore = 2/5 * 3/8
= 0.15
Answer:
5.97 cm to 3 significant figures.
Step-by-step explanation:
The diameter of the circle will be equal to the length of the diagonal of the square.
Area = 56 = πr^2
r^2 = 56 / π
r = √(56 / π) = 4.222 cm
So the diameter = 8.444 cm.
This is = diagonal of the square so, by The Pythagoras Theorem:
x^2 + x^2 = 8.444^2 where x is the side of the square.
x^2 = (8.444)^2 / 2
x^2 = 35.651
x = 5.971 cm
