Answer:

747

Step-by-step explanation:

let the 2 numbers be x and y with x > y, then

x - y = 275 ( the difference of the 2 numbers ) and

x - 236 = 275 ( the smaller number y = 236 )

Add 236 to both sides

x = 511

Thus x = 511 and y = 236, thus

x + y = 511 + 236 = 747

A-What fraction is shaded B-what percentage is shaded

valkas [14]

Answer: A) 2/3 is shaded. B) 66.67% is shaded.

Step-by-step explanation:

The whole big triangle holds 9 total triangles in it.

Out of the 9 triangles 6 of them are shaded so the fraction will be 6/9 which reduces to 2/3.

Now convert 2/3 to a decimal to find what percentage is shaded.

2/3 = 0.6666...

0.6666 * 100 = 66.666..

66.666 as a percent is 66.67%

Sigma Notation: Need Help!!

3 x -2^(n-1)

To answer this question, first solve the equation 3 x -2^(n-1) for n=1, n=2,
n=3, n=4, and n=5.

Where n=1
3 x -2^(1-1)
3 x -2^0
3 x 1
n1 = 3

Where n=2
3 x -2^(2-1)
3 x -2^1
3 x -2
n2 = -6

Where n=3
3 x -2^(3-1)
3 x -2^2
3 x 4
n3 = 12

Where n=4
3 x -2^(4-1)
3 x -2^3
3 x -8
n4 = -24

Where n=5
3 x -2^(5-1)
3 x -2^4
3 x 16
n5 = 48

The next step is to find the summation by adding n1 + n2 + n3 + n4 + n5.

3 + (-6) + (12) + (-24) + (48) =
3 - 6 + 12 - 24 + 48
= 33
The answer is C. 33

write a system of equations for the problem, and then solve the system. if a plane can travel 340 miles per hour with the wind o

Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

The speed of plane = 40 m/s

The speed of the wind = 300 m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the speed of the plane = Y

And the speed of the wind = X

If the plane then travel 340 miles per hour with the wind, that means the plane and the wind are moving in the same direction. Therefore,

X + Y = 340 ..... ( 1 )

Also, 260 miles per hour against the wind. That is, the plane is moving opposite to the direction of the wind. Therefore,

X - Y = 260 ..... ( 2 )

Solve the two equations simultaneously by addition. That will eliminate Y

X + Y = 340

X - Y = 260

2X = 600

X = 600/2

X = 300 m/s

Substitutes X in equation (1)

300 + Y = 340

Make Y the subject of formula by collecting the like terms

Y = 340 - 300

Y = 40 m/s

Therefore, the speed of the plane is 40 m/s. While the speed of the wind is 300 m/s.
