X+y=62 ; x-y=12 Solve for x in one equation and plug that value into the other equation. ===> x=12+y ; 12+y+y=62 Subtract 12 to both sides (2y=50), then divide by 2 to find y (y=25). Now, plug 25 as y into x=12+y, getting x=37. Your two numbers are 37 and 25.

Answer:  The required numbers are 37 and 25.

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that the sum of two numbers is 62 and their difference is 12.

We are to find the numbers.

Let x and y represents he given numbers.

Then, according to the given information, we have

x+y=62~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(i)\\\\x-y=12~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(ii)

Adding equations (i) and (ii), we get

(x+y)+(x-y)=62+12\\\\\Rightarrow 2x=74\\\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{74}{2}\\\\\Rightarrow x=37.

And, from equation (i), we get

37+y=62\\\\\Rightarrow y=62-37\\\\\Rightarrow y=25.

Thus, the required numbers are 37 and 25.

maxonik [38]

Answer:

5.0 ft-lbf

Step-by-step explanation:

The force is

F = \dfrac{9}{6^x}

This force is not a constant force. For a non-constant force, the work done, <em>W</em>, is

W = \int\limits^{x_2}_{x_1} {F(x)} \, dx

with x_1 and x_2 the initial and final displacements respectively.

From the question, x_1  =0 and x_2 = 12.

Then

W = \int\limits^{12}_0 {\dfrac{9}{6^x}} \, dx

Evaluating the indefinite integral,

\int\limits \dfrac{9}{6^x} \, dx  =9 \int\limits\!\left(\frac{1}{6}\right)^x \, dx

From the rules of integration,

\int\limits a^x\, dx = \dfrac{a^x}{\ln a}

9 \int\limits \left(\frac{1}{6}\right)^x \, dx = 9\times\dfrac{(1/6)^x}{\ln(1/6)} = -5.0229\left(\dfrac{1}{6}\right)^x

Returning the limits,

\left.-5.0229\left(\dfrac{1}{6}\right)^x\right|^{12}_0 = -5.0229(0.1667^{12} - 0.1667^0) = 5.0229 \approx 5.0 \text{ ft-lbf}

Evaluate 5+\left(-3\right)-65+(−3)−65, plus, left parenthesis, minus, 3, right parenthesis, minus, 6.
Serga [27]

The question is not well-expressed, but it looks like you want to evaluate

5 + (-3) - 65 + (-3) - 65 + (-3) - 6

Answer:

-140

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, note the following

- Multiplying a negative number by another negative number gives a positive number.

- Multiplying a negative number by a positive number gives a negative number.

- Multiplying a positive number by a positive number gives a positive number.

- Brackets mean multiplication.

So

5 + (-3) - 65 + (-3) - 65 + (-3) - 6

= 5 - 3 - 65 - 3 - 65 - 3 - 6

= -140
