X+y = 42
x-y = 8
x = 8+y

Substitute it in 1st equation,
8+y+y=42
2y = 34
y = 17

Substitute it in 1st eq.,
x = 42-17 = 25

So, the two numbers are 25 & 17

Hope this helps!

Suppose that m∠MKN = 55°. What is m∠MCN?<br> !please no absurd answers!
Elena L [17]

Answer:

angle M and N are right angles

we can draw a line joining M and N  

so we’d have a triangle MNC AND KMN

both MNC AND KMN BECOME ISOSCELES TRIANGLES

so since we have 55 degrees for angle MKN. We have to find the other 2

180-55=125

now divide by 2 to get 62.5 for each of the remaining sides of triangle KMN

now to find the sides of triangle MNC

90-62.5= 27.5

27.5*2= 55

180-55=125=angle C

(sorry, it’s complex)

Between which two ordered pairs does the graph of f(x) = one-halfx2 + x – 9 cross the negative x-axis?
Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

we have that

f(x) = x^2 + x - 9

Using a graph tool

see the attached figure

The function represent a vertical parabola that open up

the vertex is a minimum-------> is the point (-0.5, -9.3)

The x-intercepts are the points when the y coordinate is equal to zero

The x-intercepts are the points (-3.5, 0)  and (2.5, 0)

so

the function cross the negative x-axis at point

therefore, the answer is

(-4, 0) and (-3, 0)
