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.

the area of a parallelogram shape land is on the square and length of its two adjacent sides are 25 m and 17 M find its diagonal
Alex787 [66]

Step-by-step explanation:

Draw diagonal AC

The triangle ABC has sides 17 and 25

Say AB is 17, BC is 25

Draw altitude on side BC from A , say h

h = 17 sin B

Area = 25*17 sin B = 408

sin B = 24/25

In ∆ ABC

Cos B = +- 7/25

= 625 + 289 — b^2 / 2*25*17

b^2 = 914 — 14*17 = 676

b = 26

h = 17*24/25 = 408/25 = 16.32

Draw the second diagonal BD

In ∆ BCD, draw altitude from D, say DE =h

BD^2 = h^2 + {(25 + sqrt (289 -h^2) }^2

BD^2 = 16.32^2 + (25 + 4.76)^2

= 885.6576 + 266.3424

BD = √ 1152 = 33.94 m

Solve the equation... 10x - 12 = 48 - 2x
hjlf
If you would like to solve the equation 10 * x - 12 = 48 - 2 * x, you can calculate this using the following steps:

10 * x - 12 = 48 - 2 * x
10 * x + 2 * x = 48 + 12
12 * x = 60   /12
x = 60 / 12
x = 5

The correct result is 5.
