Step-by-step explanation: Let x be the larger number and let y be the smaller one.

x-y=13

x=2y+3

Now you can substitute x=2y-3 into the first equation.

x-y=13=(2y+3)-y

y+3=13

y=10

x=2y+3=20+3=23. Hope that helped!

Answer:

x = 23 \\ y = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

x - y = 13  =  > y = x - 13\\ x = 2y + 3 \\  \\ x = 2(x - 13) + 3 \\ x = 2x - 23 \\ x = 23 \\  \\ 23 - y = 13 \\ 23 - 13 = y \\ y = 10

What is the solution for 5x^2-x+6=0
kati45 [8]

The easiest way to solve this problem is by using the Pythagorean theorem :D

Pythagorean theorem: [-b +- sqrt(b^2 - 4ac)]/2a

5 = a

-1 = b

6 = c

therefore, by plugging these values in!

[-(-1) +- sqrt((-1)^2 - 4(5)(6))]/2(5)

[1 +- sqrt(1 - 120)]/10

Oh so we're using imaginary numbers, so in this case you'll need to know that i = sqrt(-1), so keep this in mind (I can see why this was so difficult)

[1 +- sqrt(119)*i]10

answers:

( 1 + i*sqrt(119) ) / 10

( 1 - i*sqrt(119) ) / 10

Volume of a cone formula: V = πr²*h/3

V = volume

r = radius

h = height

Solve with the given values.

V = π(7)²*19/3

V = π(49)*19/3

V = 153.86*19/3

V = 974.94...

Round to the nearest one.

974.94... → 975.0

Therefore, the answer is 975.0yd³

Best of Luck!

Okay so to represent juice we are going to use X, and to represent water we are going to use Y.

We also know that the first two starting equations are:

6x + y = 135

4x + 2y = 110

We can re-arrange the first equation so that it equals y (for now), so it is going to end up looking like this:

y = -6x +135

Now you can take that equation and plug into either one of the starting two equations.  I chose the second equation.  We just substitute what y equals in for y in the equation, so we have:

4x + 2(135 - 6x) =  110

Now solve

4x + 270 -12x = 110

-8x + 270 = 110

Subtract 270 from both sides

-8x = -160

Now divide by -8 on both sides

x = 20

We can now confirm that juice costs $20

Now lets plug that into the equation where we solved for y, to get the actual value of y.

y = 135 - 6(20)

y = 135 - 120

y = 15

The price of water costs $15

From this we can conclude that the cost of juice is $20 and the price of water is $15
