The smaller number is 18.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Sum of two numbers = 100

The sum of 8 and the larger number is equal to 5 times the smaller number.

To find the smaller number.

Let,

Larger number is x and smaller number is y.

According to the problem,

x+y =100 ----- eq 1

8+x = 5y ------ eq 2

Now,

Putting the value x = 100 - y from eq 1 in eq 2 we get,

8+100-y = 5y

or, 6y = 108

or, y = 18

Hence,

The smaller number is 18.

In the figure, the perimeter of hexagon ABCDEF is approximately ___

blsea [12.9K]

Let
$F(-10,0) A(10,10) B(20,10) C(30,0) D(20,-10) E(10,-10)$
we know that
$FA=FE \\ AB=ED \\ BC=CD$

step 1
find distance FA
$dFA= \sqrt{ (y2-y1)^{2} +(x2-x1)^{2} } \\ dFA= \sqrt{ (10-0)^{2} +(10+10)^{2}$

$dFA= \sqrt{500} \\ dFA=22.36 units$

step 2
find distance AB
$dAB=20-10 \\ dAB=10 units$

step 3
find the distance BC
$dBC= \sqrt{ (y2-y1)^{2} +(x2-x1)^{2} }$
$dBC= \sqrt{ (0-10)^{2} +(30-20)^{2} }$
$dBC= \sqrt{200}$
$dBC=14.14 units$

step 4
find the perimeter
the perimeter is equal to
$P=2*[FA+AB+BC] \\ P=2*[22.36+10+14.14] \\ P=93 units$

step 5
find the area
the area is equal to
area triangle AFE+area rectangle ABDE+area triangle BDC

step 6
find the area of triangle AFE
$A1=20*20/2 \\ A1=200 units^{2}$

step 7
find the area of the rectangle ABDE
$A2=10*20 \\ A2=200 units^{2}$

step 8
find the area of the triangle BDC
$A3=20*10/2 \\ A3=150 units^{2}$
$Area Total=200+200+150 \\ Area Total=550 units^{2}$
