Answer: Yes the sum of any two numbers is greater than the larger of the two numbers.

Step-by-step explanation:

Yes the sum of any two numbers is greater than the larger of the two numbers.

Let us assume that the two numbers are a and b and ab is the number.

a + b > a

b > a – a

b > 0

This therefore implies that b > 0.

This may however not be true when the value of b is zero(0) or a negative number.

Manuel and Sonja are shopping for school supplies. Manuel is buying 5 notebooks and 3 pens at a cost of $21. Sonja is buying 6 n
brilliants [131]

Answer: 6x+5y=28

Step-by-step explanation:

Looking at the first equation, we can tell that x stands for notebooks and y stand for pens. Since this talks about the total cost with the amount of products they bought, we can automatically eliminate the subtracting answer choices.

Now, we know that 6x+57=28 is the correct answer because Sonja bought 6 notebooks and 5 pens. This becomes 6x+5y.

No irrational numbers are whole numbers. True or false and why?
Luda [366]
Hi!

Irrational numbers cannot be whole numbers. In order to be a whole number, you cannot have any decimals or fractions. Irrational numbers possess these properties.

Hopefully, this helps! =)

The cube less the square of a number is twice the number. If x is a positive integer, what is its value
olga55 [171]

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

let 'x' = number

x³ - x² = 2x

x³- x² - 2x = 0

x(x² - x - 2) = 0

x(x - 2)(x + 1) = 0

x = -1, 0, 2

the only positive solution is the number 2

Rick used a stick to trace a large rectangle in a sandy lot
konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

56 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter is what the sum of all sides lengths of a polygon is. So if the retangle measures 13x15 feet, the perimeter would be 13+13+15+15. Because the 13x15 is only two sides, and a retangle has 4 sides. So we need to incorperate the other two sides, which are the same as the others because it is a retangle.

Hope this helps!
