To solve this problem, we will setup a system.
We know that two numbers have a sum of 12 and a difference of 4.
So let's call our first number x and our second number y.
So we know that x + y = 12.
We can also say that x - y = 4.
Now rewrite the equations on top of each other.
<h2>x + y = 12</h2><h2>x - y = 4</h2><h2 />
Now we can use addition to solve this system.
When we add the equations together, the y's will cancel.
So we have 2x = 16.
Now divide both sides by 2 and x = 8.
Now plug an 8 back in for x in the first equation to find that y = 4.
So our numbers are 8 and 4.
This question is actually pretty simple! In one hour, you can go 23 miles. So just multiply 23 by four and you get... 92 miles in four hours!
Hope this helps! Have a great day!
Answer:
Roughly the same as what?
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
all sides are 7 units
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the triangle is equilateral then all 3 sides are equal in length
equate any 2 sides and solve for d
KL = LM
d + 2 = 12 - d ( add d to both sides )
2d + 2 = 12 ( subtract 2 from both sides )
2d = 10 ( divide both sides by 2 )
d = 5
KL = d + 2 = 5 + 2 = 7
LM = 12 - d = 12 - 5 = 7
KM = 4d - 13 = (4 × 5) - 13 = 20 - 13 = 7
