The sum of two numbers is 50 and their difference is 4 what are the two numbers

Mathematics
1 answer:
Deffense [45]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

27 and 23

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve this problem as a system of equations. X is the first number and Y is the second number.

The first equation is x+y = 50 and the second equation is x-y=4

Now we solve the system, using elimination method:

x+y=50

x-y=4

2x = 54

x = 54/2

x = 27

And from any of the equations we can find Y

27 + y = 50

y = 50 - 27

y = 23

Answer:

It does

Step-by-step explanation:

It does have a proportional relationship because if you try to find the relationship between the first two inputs and outputs, you can find that it is 21 (1 to 21, 21 divided by 1 would be 21) then if you use that relationship with the other numbers (times 21) you would get the same answer. For example in the second one, the two numbers are 2 and 42, 2 times 21 would equal 42. The next one would be 3 times 21 to equal 63 and etc.

Hope this Helps!!

The sum of two positive numbers is 5 times their difference. What is the ratio of the larger number to the smaller number?
Anna11 [10]
Let the two numbers be x and y

x + y = 5(x-y)
x + y = 5x -5y
6y = 4x
x= (6/4)y
x= (3/2)y

there the ratio is 3/2

Which lines are perpendicular to the line y – 1 = (x+2)? Check all that apply.
Ilya [14]

Answer:

none of them

Step-by-step explanation:

Two lines are perpendicular when satisfy the next equation: m1*m2 = -1, where m1 and m2 are the slopes o the lines.

line 1:  

y – 1 = (x+2)

y = x + 3

slope of line 1 = 1

line 2:  

y + 2 = –3(x – 4)

y + 2 = -3*x + 12

y =  -3*x + 10

slope of line 2 = -3

m1*m2 = 1*(-3 ) = -3

They are not perpendicular

line 3:  

y − 5 = 3(x + 11)

y − 5 = 3*x + 33

y = 3*x + 38

slope of line 3 = 3

m1*m3 = 1*3 = 3

They are not perpendicular

line 4:  

y = -3x –  

slope of line 4 = -3

m1*m4 = 1*(-3 ) = -3

They are not perpendicular

line 5:  

y = x – 2

slope of line 5 = 1

m1*m5 = 1*1 = 1

They are not perpendicular

line 6:  

3x + y = 7

y = -3x + 7

slope of line 6 = -3

m1*m6 = 1*(-3 ) = -3

They are not perpendicular

A truck can be rented from Company A for $90 a day plus a $0.20 per mile .Company B charges $20 a day plus $0.70 per mile to ren
Alex787 [66]

The number of miles in a day at which the rental costs for Company A and Company B are the same is 140 miles

<h3>Rental cost</h3>

Let

  • Number of miles = x

Company A:

90 + 0.20x

Company B:

20 + 0.70x

  • Equate both rental cost

90 + 0.20x = 20 + 0.70x

90 - 20 = 0.70x - 0.20x

70 = 0.50x

  • Divide both sides by 0.50

x = 70/0.50

x = 140 miles

Therefore, the number of miles in a day at which the rental costs for Company A and Company B are the same is 140 miles
