Answer:

13 and 23

Step-by-step explanation:

create an equation to solve:

(2x-3) + x = 36

3x - 3 = 36 combine like terms

<u> +3 +3</u><u> </u> add 3 to both sides

<u>3</u>x = <u>39</u>

3 3 divide both sides by 3

x = 13

<u>13 is the first number</u>

the 2nd number is 3 let than twice the first so we create and solve a new equation:

2x - 3 = ?

2(13) = ? substitute 13 from the

smaller number to solve

<u>23 = the 2nd number</u>

Answer:

  A)  -2

Step-by-step explanation:

The form is indeterminate at x=0, so L'Hopital's rule applies. The resulting form is also indeterminate at x=0, so a second application is required.

Let f(x) = x·sin(x); g(x) = cos(x) -1

Then f'(x) = sin(x) +x·cos(x), and g'(x) = -sin(x).

We still have f'(0)/g'(0) = 0/0 . . . . . indeterminate.

__

Differentiating numerator and denominator a second time gives ...

  f''(x) = 2cos(x) -sin(x)

  g''(x) = -cos(x)

Then f''(0)/g''(0) = 2/-1 = -2

_____

I like to start by graphing the expression to see if that is informative as to what the limit should be. The graph suggests the limit is -2, as we found.

We know that the sum of all the exterior angles will add up to 360°.

We can solve this using an expression:

360/n

n = the number of sides (in the problem, we are given 19 sides)

Solve with the given value:

360/19

18.947368

Round to the nearest tenth:

18.947368 → 18.9

Therefore, the answer is 18.9

Best of Luck!

Mice21 [21]

Answer:

5.70%

Step-by-step explanation:

Correct word <em>"We turned a $25,000 investment of money in 1982 into $100,000 in 2007."  What return (interest rate) did they really earn on their investment?</em>

No of years(1982 to 2007) = 25 years

The average annual return is R%, so $25,000 * (1 + R)^25 = $100,000

(1 + R)^25 = $100,000 / $25,000

(1 + R)^25 = 4

<em>We take 25th root on each side</em>

(1 + R)^(25*1/25) = 25\sqrt{4}

1 + R = 1.0570

R = 1.0570 - 1

R = 0.057

R = 5.70%

So, the return (interest rate) they really earn on their investment is 5.70%.
