Let one of the numbers be x and the other be y.

The sum of the two numbers is 361:
⇒ x + y = 361

The difference between the two number is 173:
⇒x - y = 173

To solve this, we will make x the subject in one equation and substitute it into the other equation.

equation 1: x + y = 361
equation 2: x - y = 173

From equation 1:
x + y = 361
x = 361 - y 

Now that we make x the subject, we will substitute it into the equation 2:

x - y = 173
(361 - y) - y = 173
361 - y - y = 173
361 - 2y = 173
2y = 361 - 173
2y = 188
y = 94

Now that we know that y = 94, we substitute it into equation 1 to find the value of x.

x + y = 361
x + 94 = 361
x = 361 - 94
x = 267

-------------------------------------------------
The two numbers are 267 and 94.

Please solve the table correctly.
Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

No. Triangles       Perimeter

 1                                  14

2                                  18

3                                  22

We see from the table, after the first  perimeter  (= 14),  with  each increase of 1 in the number of triangles,  the perimeter increases by 4.

As an equation it is  P = 14 + 4(n - 1)  where P = perimeter and n = number of triangles.

You choose 3 bananas from a group of 9. In how many ways can this be done?
alexandr1967 [171]

Assuming the order of selection doesn't matter:

\displaystyle \binom{9}{3}=\dfrac{9!}{3!6!}=\dfrac{7\cdot8\cdot9}{2\cdot3}=84
