The two numbers are 41 & 37.

The way to solve this is by setting up an equation. We know that 2 numbers are going to equal 78, so here would be the general equation (let x represent the number we don't know):

(x) + (x + 4) = 78

Now, we need to simplify it (combine like terms):

2x + 4 = 78

Then you can solve it like any other equation. Subtract 4 on both sides:

2x = 74

Divide by 2 on both sides:

x = 37.

So, now you know one number is equal to 37 and that the other is 37 + 4.

That's how you get 37 & 41.

X = ?

X +4= ?

(X+4) + x = 78

2X + 4 = 78. Subtract 4 from both sides

You get 2X = 74.  Divide both sides by 2 and you get x= 37

Now plug 37 in and you get 37 and 41

Evaluate 11011-101 base 2
choli [55]

11011 - 101 = 10110 (putting the zero in front does not matter)

Base two only accommodate 1's and 0's. Base two are called binary.

Check the picture below

Note 10 - 1 in binary equals 1

when we borrow to 1, that zero becomes 10, then 10 minus 1 equals 1.

Find f f'(x)=1+3sqrt(x) f(4)=25
wlad13 [49]
It appears that you have a derivative and want to integrate...

dy/dx=1+3√x 

y(x)=x+(2/3)x^(3/2)+C  you are given that f(4)=25 so we can solve for the constant of integration...

y(4)=25=4+16/3+C

21=16/3+C

(63-16)/3=C

47/3=C so

f(x)=x+(2/3)x^(3/2)+47/3

f(x)=(3x+2x^(3/2)+47)/3

Carmen deposits $700 into an account that pays simple interest at a rate of 3% per year. How much interest will she be paid in t
VLD [36.1K]
First we need to find what 3% of 700 is.  We know 10% is 70, 5% is 35, so we need to find out what 3% is.  If you don't know how to calculate percentages of a number, I recommend starting with 10%.  This way you know 10% of the number is 70, so you will also know that 1% of the number is 7.  7 x 3 = 21.  So 3% of 700 is 21.  Since it was over 6 years, we multiply 21 x 6.  That gives us 126.  She will be paid $126 in interest in the first six years.
