Step-by-step explanation:

phukan = x

Nanwan = y

let this be a simultaneous equation.

x - y = 18.... equation i

x + y = 100.... equation ii

subtract equation i from equation ii

= 2y = 118

y = 59

substitute y = 59 in equation ii to get x

x + 59 = 100

x = 100- 59

x = 41

Nanwan = 59, Phukan = 41

Answer:

Nawman = 59 years

Phukan = 41 years

Step-by-step explanation:

P = N - 18

P + N = 100

(N - 18) + N = 100

2N = 100 + 18

2N = 118

N = 118 : 2

N = 59 years

P = (59 - 18) years

P = 41 years

In a right triangle, <A and <B are acute. Find the value of sin A, when tan A = 8/15​
finlep [7]

Answer:sinA=8/17

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Pythagoras principle

x=√(15^2+8^2)

x=√(15x15+8x8)

x=√(225+64)

x=√(289)

x=17

SinA=opposite/hypothenus

SinA=8/17

Can a triangle be formed with the side lengths of 2.9 in, 4.8 in, and 7.4 in?
ddd [48]

Answer: Yes

Step-by-step explanation: A triangle can be formed because A+B>C

A and B are 2.9 and 4.8

Since those numbers have the least value

I added both and found that A and B are equal to 7.7

7.7>7.4

These sides could form a triangle
