Let the two numbers be x and y.
Let m = the fraction (or percentage) for increasing the numbers.
Increase x by 5, multiply (x+5) by (1+m), and set it qual to 36.
(x + 5)*(1 + m) = 36
Increase y by 5, multiply (y+5) by (1+m), and set it equal to 36.
(y+5)*(1+m) = 36
Therefore
(x+5)*(1+m) = (y+5)*(1+m)
x + 5 = y + 5
x = y
x - y = 0
Answer: 0.
The difference between the two numbers is zero.
Answer:
(16 x^8 - x^3 + 6)/(2 x^3)
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplify the following:
(64 x^8 - 4 x^3 + 24)/(8 x^3)
Factor 4 out of 64 x^8 - 4 x^3 + 24:
(4 (16 x^8 - x^3 + 6))/(8 x^3)
4/8 = 4/(4×2) = 1/2:
Answer: (16 x^8 - x^3 + 6)/(2 x^3)
Answer:
a) 40 = 8b
b) b = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
(b) 40 = 8 × b
40 ÷ 8 = b
5 = b
