The numbers are 15 and 10
Step-by-step explanation:
- Let one number be x. Then the other number = 2x - 5. Sum = 25
x + 2x - 5 = 25
3x = 30
⇒ x = 10
⇒ 2x - 5 = 20 - 5 = 15
Answer: C) 9.8 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
We add the positive additions of nails: 12 + 2 1/2 = 14 1/2 pounds of nails
We subtract the negative subtractions of nails: 14 1/2 - 1 1/4 - 3 9/20 = 9.8 pounds of nails.
D because 81 is bigger than 25 but way bigger than o.o8 as well
I think the correct answer to that is 4 2/3 or 14/3.
