X=27 and y=11
if you let each number equal x and y we know the sum is 38 so x+y=38
and the smaller is 16 less than the larger
. so if we say the smaller number is 7 then x-16=y
these can be solved as a simultaneous equation. x+(x-16)=38
2x-16=38
2x=54
x=27
(27)-16=y
y=11
so the answer is x=27 y=11
Answer:
288 ft³
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that
The volume of each box is 1 cubic foot
And, Hollies required 8 of these layers
Now based on the above information
We assume that the dimension of the base layer is 6 by 6
So, the volume of the container is
= Length × Width × Height
where,
Length = 6 ft
Width = 6 ft
And, Height = 8 ft
So,
= 6 ft × 6 ft × 8 ft
= 288 ft³
Answer:
3a=4.5
Step-by-step explanation:
it says that "a is equal to 3 times b", which translates to a=3b
We can substitute a as 3b in 2a+4b=5
2(3b)+4b=5
multiply
6b+4b=5
add
10b=5
divide by 10
b=1/2
since it's given that a=3b, we can multiply 1/2 by 3
a=3/2
3a is 3 times a, so we can mutiply 3(3/2)=9/2=4.5
Hope this helps!
