14 and 11

let x be the second number then the first number = x + 3 ( 3 more than second)

Also 3(x + 3) = 5x - 13

3x + 9 = 5x - 13

subtract 3x from both sides

9 = 5x - 3x - 13

9 = 2x - 13

add 13 to both sides

22 = 2x

divide both sides by 2

11 = x → second number

first number = x + 3 = 11 + 3 = 14

How might you prove your observations in Question 2 using algebra and x and y-coordinates? Briefly outline an approach using wha

tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

I can use variables to represent the coordinates of the vertices for a general triangle, ∆ABC. Then I can calculate the midpoints of the sides in terms of those variables. Using the point-slope formula for the equation of a straight line, I can build the symbolic equations for the three medians, AE, BF, and CD. I can solve for the point of intersection for two of the medians, AE and BF, for example. Finally, I can prove the lines (i.e., medians) concurrent if the point I found also satisfies the equation of the line for CD.

The answer is: " 28 " .
___________________________________________________
" Twenty-eight (28) students said they would vote for Brianna."
___________________________________________________
Explanation:
___________________________________________________
We are given, in the problem, that there are "45 students total" .
___________________________________________________
The fraction: $\frac{56}{90} ;$

can be reduced as follows:

$\frac{56}{90} = (56÷2) / (90÷2) = [tex] \frac{28}{45}$ .
___________________________________________________
Thus, "28 students out of 45 students voted for Brianna" .
___________________________________________________
The answer is: "28 students" .
