Answer:

46

Step-by-step explanation:

Let (ab) represent a number with a in the ten's position and b is the one's position.

This means (ab) actually has value of 10a+b.

We are given the sum of those digits of (ab) is 10; this means a+b=10.

It says if 18 is added to the number (ab), then the result is (ba).

So (ab) has value 10a+b and

(ba) has value 10b+a.

We are given then:

(ab)+18=(ba)

10a+b+18=10b+a

Subtract 10a on both sides:

b+18=10b+a-10a

Simplify:

b+18=10b-9a

Subtract b on both sides:

18=10b-b-9a

18=9b-9a

Divide both sides by 9:

2=b-a

Rearrange by commutative property:

2=-a+b

So the system of equations we want to solve is:

a+b=10

-a+b=2

-------------------------Add equations together (this will eliminate the variable a and allow you to go ahead and solve for b:

0+2b=12

2b=12

Divide both sides by 2:

b=\frac{12}{2}

Simplify:

b=6

If b=6 and a+b=10, then a=4.  a=4 since 4+6=10.

So the original number is (46).

18 more than 46 is 18+46=(64) which is what we wanted.

We also have the sum of 4 and 6 is 10 as well.

777dan777 [17]

Answer:

B. y - 35 = 2(x - 10)

Step-by-step explanation:

The height of the plant, y, after x days could be modeled by the equation

<h3>y-y0=k(x-xo)     (1),</h3><h3>where y0 was the initial height at 'x0'th. day, and k is the constant of proportionality.</h3><h3>From equation (1), k could be evaluated as follows:</h3><h3>k=(y-y0)/(x-x0) </h3><h3>From the problem statement, we may determine k by plugging in the given values, e.g. y0= 35, x0=10, y=55, x=20.</h3><h3>Thus,</h3><h3>k=(55-35)/(20-10)=2</h3><h3>Therefore, the model equation becomes</h3><h3>y-35=2(x-10)</h3><h3></h3>

<span>△PQR is similar to △STU

</span>m∠R = m∠U = 96°

m∠Q = m∠T = 6

m∠P = 180 - ( 96 + 6)

m∠P = 180 - 102

m∠P = 78
 
answer 

m∠P = 78

Find the coordinates of the vertices of the figure formed by each system of inequalities.
siniylev [52]

Answer:

D(1, –5), (7, 1), (–11, 7)

Step-by-step explanation:

The given inequalities are:

y + x ≥ –4

y ≥ x – 6

3y + x ≤ 10

We graph the inequalities as shown in the attachment.

The coordinates of the vertices of the figure formed by the given system of inequalities are:

(1, –5), (7, 1), (–11, 7)

The correct choice is D.
