Answer: 29 and 24

Step-by-step explanation:

Since one number is 5 more than another

53-5 = 48

Then we divide that by two to get the value of one of the two numbers

48/2= 24

In order to get the number which is 5 more than the other, we add 5

24+5= 29

So the two numbers would be 29 and 24.

Check:

29+24= 53

Answer:   24 and 29

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Let x represent one of the numbers, then the other number is x + 5.

"sum" means to add them, so lets add x and x + 5 and set it equal to 53

   x    +     x + 5    = 53

             2x + 5    = 53           <em>simplified</em>

             2x          = 48           <em>subtracted 5 from both sides</em>

               x          = 24            <em>divided 2 from both sides</em>

So one of the numbers is 24.    The other number is    x + 5  

                                                                                  =   24 + 5

                                                                                  =      29

(08.03) Consider the following pair of equations:
Luba_88 [7]

Substitution method is used to solve the linear system of equations for one or more variables.

Consider the first equation y = 3x + 3 -----(1)

In equation (1) plug in y=x-1, we get

x -1 = 3x + 3

Add -3x on both side , we get

x-3x -1 = 3x-3x +3

-2x-1=0 + 3

Now add +1 on both sides, we get

-2x-1+1= 3+1

-2x + 0 =4

Now divide both side by -2

-2x/-2= 4/-2

X= -2

Now put x=-2 in the the second equation,

y=x-1

y=(-2)-1

y=-3

Solution(-2,-3)

Consider the function below. f(x)= x^3 + 2x^2 - x - 2 plot the x and y intercepts of the function
dimulka [17.4K]

In the Figure below is shown the graph of this function. We have the following function:

f(x)=x^3+2x^2-x-2

The y-intercept occurs when x=0, so:

f(0)=(0)^3+2(0)^2-(0)-2=-2

Therefore, the y-intercept is the given by the point:

\boxed{(0,-2)}

From the figure we have three x-intercepts:

\boxed{P_{1}(-2,0)} \\ \boxed{P_{2}(-1,0)} \\ \boxed{P_{3}(1,0)}

So, the x-intercepts occur when y=0. Thus, proving this:

f(x)=x^3+2x^2-x-2 \\ \\ For \ P_{1}:\\ If \ x=-2, \ y=(-2)^3+2(-2)^2-(-2)-2=0 \\ \\ For \ P_{2}:\\ If \ x=-1, \ y=(-1)^3+2(-1)^2-(-1)-2=0 \\ \\ For \ P_{3}:\\ If \ x=1, \ y=(1)^3+2(1)^2-(1)-2=0

The given line passes through the points (0, −3) and (2, 3).
Fed [463]
If the 2 lines are parallel, their slopes are the same.

The slope of both is  
          3+3
m = ---------- = 3
          2 - 0

If the new line <span>passes through the point (−1, −1), then the equation in point slope form is:

y+1 = 3(x+1).</span>
