Since the numbers are not consecutive natural numbers, how about if I let the 4 numbers be a, b, c, and d?

The sum is given to be 1320.

a + b + c + d =1320...I will call this the first equation.

Can I then say that the second equation is b + c + d = 0.4a + a? Yes, I can do this.

Simplifying my second equation,

I get b + c + d = 1.4a.

Plugging this into my first equation, I get

a +1.4a =1320

2.4a =1320

So, a =1320/(2.4) =550.

Answer: 550

Answer:

550

Step-by-step explanation:

We aren't given that they are consecutive so lets just pretend the numbers are x, y, z , and r.

We are given x+y+z+r=1320

We are also given that y+z+r=.4x+x

Simplifying my second equation gives us y+z+r=1.4x. I'm going to plug this into first equation giving me

x+1.4x=1320

2.4x=1320

So x=1320/2.4=550

Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

63

Step-by-step explanation:

x = # in ones place

y = # in tens place

x + y = 9

y = x - 3

substitute:

x + x-3 = 9

2x - 3 = 9

2x = 12

x = 6

y = 3

Find the area of the shaded region
Dimas [21]

The area of the shaded region is 15.453 square units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

The given shape consists of a rectangle and two circles.

The length of the rectangle is given as 12 cm. Both the diameters of the circles equal 12 cm. So each circle has a diameter of 6 cm and thus a radius of 3 cm.

The diameter of the circle is equal to the width of the rectangle.

So the rectangle has a length of 12 cm and a width of 6 cm. The circles have radii of 3 cm each.

Step 2:

The area of the rectangle = (l)(w) = (12)(6) = 72 square cm.

The area of each circle = \pi r^{2}  = (3.1415)(3^{2} ) = 28.2735 square cm.

The area of both circles =2(28.2735) = 56.547 square cm.

The area of the shaded region is the difference between the area of the rectangle and the area of both circles.

The area of the shaded region = 72 - 56.547 = 15.453 square units.

The area of the shaded region is 15.453 square units.
