What is the sum of two numbers is 40 and their difference is 10

Butoxors [25]4 years ago

Answer:

<u>The two numbers are 25 and 15.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's find out the two numbers, this way:

x = first number

y = second number

This is the equations system:

x + y = 40

x - y = 10

Solving for x in the first equation:

x + y = 40

x = 40 - y

Solving for y in the second equation:

40 - y - y = 10

40 - 2y = 10

-2y = 10 - 40

-2y = - 30

<u>y = -30/-2 = 15</u>

Solving for x:

x + y = 40

x + 15 = 40

x = 40 - 15

<u>x = 25</u>

<u>The two numbers are 25 and 15.</u>

The two triangles shown in the figure are similar. Find the distance, d, across Coyote Ravine.
Brilliant_brown [7]

We can see that both triangles are right angle triangle as per information given into picture. So we will prove that they are similar then use properties of similar triangle to find the value of d.

In triangle STV and triangle XWV:

∠STV = ∠XWV { both are equal to 90 degree}

∠TVS = ∠WVX { vertically opposite angles are equal}

Hence by AA (Angle Angle) similarity postulate of the triangles, It is proved that triangle STV and triangle XWV are similar.

We know that ratio of corresponding sides of similar triangles are equal so we can write:

\frac{ST}{XW}=\frac{TV}{WV}

\frac{350}{d}=\frac{400}{180}

350*180=400d

63000=400d

divide both side by 400

157.5=d

Hence final answer is d=157.5  m.

Alternate interior: <2 and <7
(They are on opposite sides of the transversal line, but inside the parallel lines.)

Corresponding: <1 and <3
(They have the same measure because they are in the same spot above the parallel line.)

Alt exterior: <1 and <8
(They are on opposite sides of the transversal, but on the outside of the parallel lines.)

F(x)=1/2×+6 plz helpppppppppp​
FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

The solution set can be given as:

\{x|x\ \epsilon\ R,x\neq -3\}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given function:

f(x)=\frac{1}{2x+6}

To find the domain of the function in set notation.

Solution:

For the function f(x) to exist the denominator must be ≠ 0

We have the denominator (2x+6) which  cannot be = 0.

Thus, we can find the domain of the function using the above relation.

The function f(x) will not exist when:

2x+6=0

Solving for x

Subtracting both sides by 6.

2x+6-6=0-6

2x=-6

Dividing both sides by 2.

\frac{2x}{2}=\frac{-6}{2}

∴ x=-3

Thus, the function will not exist at x=-3. This means it has all real number solutions except -3.

The solution set can be given as:

\{x|x\ \epsilon\ R,x\neq -3\}
