Answer:
One number is and the other number is
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the smaller number and y be the bigger number.
x = x
y = 5x
6x + 3y = 3
6x + (3 * 5x) = 3
6x + 15x = 3
(÷3)
2x + 5x = 1
7x = 1
x =
6x + 3y = 3
6() + 3y = 3
+ 3y = 3
3y = 3 -
3y =
Divide both sides by 3 to get 1y:
y =
So one number is and the other number is

Answer: Area of Parallelogram is 28 units squared.
Step-by-step explanation:
Knowing, any two vector sides of a parallelogram sharing the same initial point, we can find the area of parallelogram that two vectors are shaping, using the cross product of these two vectors a×b, where the area is given by
Area= |a×b| ___ (1)
From the given points,we may choose any three of them such and find a two vector and expresses the sides of parallelogram " or one side and a diagonal of parallelogram" ,we may choose for example B ,C and D.
Moreover, we may choose point B, to be common point for the two sides " the initial point of two vector" thus we need to find vector BD and vector BC .
