The sum of two numbers is 108. the difference of the same numbers is 78. what are the numbers

Mathematics
1 answer:
Nimfa-mama [501]3 years ago
4 0

The sum of two numbers:

x + y = 108

The difference of the same two numbers:

x - y = 78

We can use substitution to figure out x and y:

x - y = 78 can be changed to x = 78 + y

We can plug this into the first equation:

78 + y + y = 108

78 + 2y = 108

2y = 30

y = 15

Now solve for x using any of the two equations. I'll use the first equation since it's easier:

x + 15 = 108

x = 93

Line ET is tangent to circle A at point T and the measure of angle TNG is 35.
STALIN [3.7K]

ET is tangent to circle A so ET is perpendicular to AT

So <ATE = 90°

Given <TNG = 35°

<NET = <ATE - <TNG

= 90° - 35°

= 55°

Answer is 55°

You could draw a pie graph, I'm assuming you know how to draw one but I'll tell you anyways. draw a circle with sixty slices, like pizza. shade in 15 percent, or nine sclices. that's my favorite way to model percentages.

\frac{1}{4}=\frac{6}{x}\\\\x=24\ people

step 2

Find the number of cans ordered

we know that

Charissa ordered 3 cans of lemonade for each person

so

using proportion

Find out the number of cans of lemonade she ordered for 24 people

\frac{3}{1}=\frac{x}{24}\\\\x=24(3)\\\\x=72\ cans

Three circles are arranged in a row so that each is tangent to the
lorasvet [3.4K]
<span>πd is the circumference of a circle, so with a diameter of 4 a single circle has a circumference of 4π. 1/3 of each circle is in contact with the belt, so that total part is still 4π. Then, the part of the belt connecting from tangent to tangent is 2 radii, so 3 areas is 12. The belt would then be 12+4π cm.</span>
