The difference of two numbers is 15. The larger number is 1 more than 3 times the smaller number. What are the two numbers?

loris [4]

Answer:

7, 22

Step-by-step explanation:

Let S = the smaller number.

"The larger number is 1 more than 3 times the smaller number."

The larger number is 3S + 1.

The difference between the numbers is 15, so the larger number minus the smaller number equals 15.

3S + 1 - S = 15

2S + 1 = 15

2S = 14

S = 7

The smaller number is 7.

larger number = 3S + 1 = 3(7) + 1 = 21 + 1 = 22

The larger number is 22.

Secants L J and L M intersect and form an angle at point L. Solve for x.

german

Answer:

x = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume your diagram is like the one below.

The intersecting secant angles theorem states, "When two secants intersect outside a circle, the measure of the angle formed is one-half the difference between the far and the near arcs."

For your diagram, that means

$\begin{array}{rcl}m\angle L &=&\dfrac{1}{2} \left(m \widehat {JM} - m\widehat {PQ}\right)\\\\(3x + 13)^{\circ}& = &\dfrac{1}{2} \left[(8x + 48)^{\circ} - (5x - 20)^{\circ}\right]\\\\3x + 13& = &\dfrac{1}{2}(8x + 48 - 5x + 20)\\\\3x + 13& = &\dfrac{1}{2}(3x + 68)\\\\6x + 26 & = & 3x + 68\\6x & = & 3x + 42\\3x & = & 42\\x & = & \mathbf{14}\\\end{array}$

Check:

$\begin{array}{rcl}(3\times14 + 13) & = &\dfrac{1}{2} \left[(8\times14 + 48)^{\circ} - (5\times14 - 20)^{\circ}\right]\\\\42 + 13& = &\dfrac{1}{2}(112 + 48 - 70 + 20)\\\\55& = &\dfrac{1}{2}(110)\\\\55 & = & 55\\\end{array}$
