Answer:

the numbers are 43 and 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the numbers are x and y

x+y=58

x-y=28

from that two equations,

2x=86

x=43

substitute x value in any equation we will get ,

y=15

Answer:

x = 43 and y = 28

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider two number x and y such that x + y = 58 and x - y = 28

from equation (2) x = y + 28

now, we substitute x by y + 28 in equation (1) we get:

x + y = 58 means y + 28 + y = 58 the. 2y + 28 = 58 then y = 30/2 = 15

since, x = y + 28 then x = 15 + 28 = 43

a scuba diver descended at a rate of 2 1/4 per second. If 0 represents the surface of the water and distances below the surface

Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

The location will be at $- 28\frac{1}{8}$ units.

Step-by-step explanation:

A scuba diver descended at a rate of $2\frac{1}{4}$ units per second.

Now, if 0 represents the surface of the water and distances below the surface are negative, then after $12\frac{1}{2}$ seconds the location of the diver will be given by the followings :

In one second the diver descends by 2.25 units depth.

So, in 12.5 seconds the diver will descend by $(2.25 \times 12.5) = 28.125$ units i.e. $28\frac{1}{8}$ units depth.

Therefore, the location will be at $- 28\frac{1}{8}$ units. (Answer)

And experiment consist of rolling a six sided dice to select a number between one and six and drawing a card at random from a se

Anna11 [10]

Answer:

1/60

Step-by-step explanation:

Since there are 6 possible outcomes for the first event and 10 possible outcomes for the second event, and they are independent of each other, one outcome of the experiment would have a 1/(6*10)=1/60 chance of happening. Hope this helps!

Need help ASAP. Last two problems on my study guide, can't seem to solve them?

Dimas [21]

Answer:

9) 4

10) p¹⁵/q⁹

Step-by-step explanation:

As per the law of indices, (xᵃ)ᵇ=xᵃᵇ.

So divide 8 by 2 to get 4

10)

p(p⁻⁷q³)⁻²q⁻³

p(p¹⁴q⁻⁶)q⁻³ <em>(because (xᵃ)ᵇ=xᵃᵇ)</em>

pq⁻³(p¹⁴q⁻⁶)

p¹⁵q⁻⁹

p¹⁵/q⁹ <em>(because x⁻ᵃ =1 /xᵃ)</em>
