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.

The volume of a sphere is 36π cubic feet. What is the radius of the sphere? (V = 4 3 πr3)
MrRa [10]

radius = 3 feet

rearrange the formula making r the subject

\frac{4}{3} πr³ = V ( multiply both sides by 3 to eliminate fraction )

4πr³ = 3V ( divide both sides by 4π )

r³ = \frac{3V}{4\pi } = ( 3 × 36π ) / 4π = 3 × 9 = 27

take the cube root of both sides

r = \sqrt[3]{27} = 3

In the figure, and bisect each other. Complete the statements to prove that quadrilateral ABCD is a parallelogram.
Alisiya [41]

Observe the figure below.

    Statement                                                                          Reason

1. AC and BD bisect each other                                             Given

2. AE = EC and BE = ED                                                         Definition of bisection

3. m \angle AEB = m \angle CED                       Vertical angle theorem

Vertical angle theorem states " When two lines intersect each other, the vertically opposite angles are always equal".

4. \Delta ABE \cong \Delta CDE                         SAS criterion for congruence

5. m \angle ACD = m \angle CAB           Corresponding angles of congruent triangles are congruent

6. AB \parallel CD                                 Converse of alternate interior angle theorem

7.  m \angle BEC = m \angle AED                   Vertical angle theorem

8.  \Delta BEC \cong \Delta DEA            SAS criterion for congruence

9.  BC \parallel AD                                 Converse of alternate interior angle theorem

As, \Delta BEC \cong \Delta DEA, so m \angle CBD = m \angle BDA as corresponding parts of corresponding triangles are equal. As these angles are alternate interior angles, so the lines BC and AD are parallel by  "Converse of alternate interior angle theorem".
