There are two numbers whose sum is 64. The larger number subtracted from 4 times the smaller number gives 31. Then the numbers are 45 and 19

<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>

Given that, There are two numbers whose sum is 64.  

Let the number be a and b in which a is bigger.

Then, a + b = 64 ------ eqn (1)

The larger number subtracted from 4 times the smaller number gives 31.  

4 x b – a = 31  

4b – a = 31 ----- eqn (2)

We have to find the numbers.

So, from eqn (2)

a = 4b – 31

Subatitute a in (1)

4b – 31 + b = 64

On solving we get

5b  = 64 + 31  

5b = 95

b = 19

So, b = 19, then eqn 1

a + 19 = 64

On simplification,

a = 64 – 19

a = 45  

Hence, the two numbers are 45 and 19

Answer:

( 6(x)² + 12(x) - 90 ) ft³

Explanation:

  • <u>deep end water</u>: 2(x)² + 12(x) + 10
  • <u>shallow end water</u>: 4(x)² - 100

addition problem: 2(x)² + 12(x) + 10 + 4(x)² - 100

total volume of water:

  • 2(x)² + 12(x) + 10 + 4(x)² - 100
  • 2(x)² + 4(x)² + 12(x) + 10 - 100
  • 6(x)² + 12(x) - 90

What is the value of the expression |a + b| + |c| when a = –6, b = 2, and c = –11?
iVinArrow [24]
The answer is D. -15 because I am assuming that the vertical lines mean brackets, and we have to work out the brackets first (according to BIDMAS). Doing so, -6 + 2 = -4 and -4 + -11 = -15.
