Answer:
c) 4
Step-by-step explanation:
<u><em>The sum of two numbers is 14. The larger number minus three times the lesser number is -2</em></u>
<u><em /></u>
To solve this question, we need to write the statement mathematically;
Let the two numbers be x and y
"The sum of two numbers is 14" can be mathematically written as x+y = 14
and
"The larger number minus three times the lesser number is -2" can be mathematically written as x - 3y = -2
x + y = 14 ------------------(1)
x - 3y= -2 -------------------(2)
Subtract equation (2) from equation (1)
[x - x = 0 y - (-3y)=4y 14-(-2)=16]
4y = 16
To get the value of y divide both-side of the equation by 4
4y/4 = 16/4
y = 4
Substitute y=4 into equation (1)
x + y =14
x +4 =14
Subtract 4 from both-side of the equation
x + 4 -4 = 10]-4
x = 10
x=10 and y =4
Therefore the lesser number is 4
It is Choice C. Hope this helped!
The sum of 7-1 and 7-2 will be a rational number because sum of rational numbers is a rational numbers.
A rational number is a number which can be written in p/q form where q≠0.
We know that when two rational numbers is added then the sum is also a rational number. And when two rational numbers are subtracted then the difference is also a rational number.
So in the given question, lets study the term differently that is,
i) 7 - 1 is a rational number because their difference is equal to 6 and it can be written in p/q form which is 6/1.
ii) 7 – 2 is also a rational number as their difference will be 5 which is a rational and can be written in p/q form which is 5/1.
So when these two rational numbers are added their sum will also be a rational number which is 11.
