Let the two numbers be x and y
Then
x + y = 60
And
x - y = 2
x = y + 2
Putting the value of x in the first equation we get
x + y = 60
y + 2 + y= 60
2y + 2 = 60
2y = 60 - 2
2y = 58
y = 58/2
y = 29
Now putting the value of y in the first equation we get
x + y = 60
x + 29 = 60
x = 60 - 29
x = 31
So the value of the two numbers comes out to be 31 and 29. I hope the procedure is clear enough for you to understand.

31 and 29 because 31  plus 29 is 60 and 31 minus 29 is 2

Elden [556K]

Answer:

2.995 ou 35.940 (?)

Step-by-step explanation:

Não me lembro exatamente como fazer isso, vou mostrar duas maneiras diferentes de resolver isso.

Use a fórmula l = P * r * t

| = Juros

P = Principal

r = taxa

t = tempo

Para resolver isso, você terá que ... O principal é 29.950, a taxa é 5%, mas se tornará um decimal que é 0,05, e o tempo é 2 Coloque-o na forma de fórmula 29.950 * 0,05 * 2 = 2.995 em interesse

Ou .. Você usará a mesma fórmula, mas desta vez multiplique 0,05 por 12, pois há 12 meses em um ano que é 0,6, então ... 29.950 * 0,6 * 2 = 35.940 de juros

Espero que funcione!

The ratio of the measure of the angles of a tirangle is 1:2:3. find the measure of each angle​
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

30,60,90

Step-by-step explanation:

A triangle’s interior angles sum to 180.

1:2:3 ratio

180 divided by 6 (add up the ratio numbers)= 30. Use 30 in the ratios.

(30x1=30, 30x2=60, 30x3=90)

30,60,90

30+60+90=180 (add back up to make sure they sum to 180 to check your answer)

5x+2y=22. -2x+6y=3 What is the X coordinate of the solution. Round to the nearest tenth
just olya [345]
Multiply first example by 3 and subtract by second example, you will get the following:

3*(5x + 2y) = 3*22   =>  3*5x + 3*2y = 66      =>  15x + 6y = 66
now subtraction:
(15x + 6y) - (-2x + 6y) = 66 - 3
15x + 6y + 2x - 6y = 63
15x + 2x + 6y - 6y = 63
17x = 63
x = 63/17 ≈ 3.705..... and as it says to round to the nearest tenth our answer would be: x = 3.7
