Answer:

The numbers are 5 and 20 respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let two numbers are x and y.

According to question-

x + y = 25...............................(i)

Given x is smaller number and y is larger number.

then,

2 y - 3 x = 25..........................(ii)

To solve equation (i) and (ii)-

Firstly multiply by 3 in equation (i) and then add in equation (ii)-

<em>  3 x + 3 y = 75</em>

<em><u>- 3 x  + 2 y = 25</u></em>

<em><u>5 y = 100</u></em>

<em>y = 20</em>

Put y = 100 in equation (i)-

We get,

<em>x = 25 - 20</em>

<em>x = 5</em>

<em>Therefore x = 5 and y = 20 .</em>

Answer:

5 and 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the numbers be x and y

and x be the smaller number

Then

y+x=25...eqn(1)x2

2y-3x=25...eqn(2)x1

2y+2x=50

2y-3x=25

Subtract eqn 2 from 1

then,

5x=25

x=5

substitute the value of x in eqn 1

y+5=25

y=25-5

y=20

Therefore the numbers are 20 and 5

Factor completely:<br>64 - y^3
madam [21]
From your equation, you can see that you have a difference of two cubes (aka two cubes being subtracted): 64, which is 4^{3}, and y^{3}.

There is rule for the difference of two cubes:
The difference of two cubes is equal to the difference of the cube roots times a binomial, which is the sum of the squares of the roots plus the product of the roots.

That sounds pretty confusing, but it's much easier to understand when put mathematically. Let's say our two cubes are a^{3} and b^{3}. The difference of those two cubes is:
a^{3} - b^{3} = (a - b)( a^{2} + ab + b^{2})

In our problem, a = 4 (since a^{3} = 64) and b = y (since b^{3} = y^{3}. Plug these values into the rule to find the factor of 64 - y^3:
64 - y^3 \\&#10;= (4 - y)( 4^{2} + 4y + y^{2}) \\&#10;=  (4 - y)( 16 + 4y + y^{2})

-----

Answer: (4 - y)( 16 + 4y + y^{2})

7/9 + 5/12 with lcm pls help<br> and give explanation pls
Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

1. 43/36

2. 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

1. 7/9 + 5/12

= LCM of 9 and 12 is 36

= 28/36 + 15/12

= (28 + 15) / 36

= 43/36

2. 21/24 - 3/8

= LCM of 24 and 8 is 24

= 21/24 - 9/24

= (21 - 9) / 24

= 12/24

= 1/2
