svp [43]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The answer is 35 and 22

Because:

U let the numbers(#) be x and y (x will be the larger number and y the smaller number

So:

x + y =57

x = 2*y - 9

Therefore,

{2*y - 9} + y = 57

Leaving the two numbers 35 and 22

I hope I could help

Triangle STU is rotated 270 clockwise about the origin to create triangle S'T'U'. If point U of triangle STU is a (a,b), which a
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

(b, -a)

Step-by-step explanation:

First note that the rule for a rotation by 270° about the origin is (x,y)→(y,−x)

Note that the coordinates were swapped and the x coordinates negated. Similarly;

Given the coordinate of the point U as (a, b), if the triangle is rotated 270degrees clockwise, the resulting coordinate will  be (b, -a)

The quantity a varies directly with b and c and inversely with dThe quantity d is tripledWhich of the following must be true for
EastWind [94]

Answer:

We have the next relation:

A = (b*d)/c

because we have direct variation with b and d, but inversely variation with c.

Now, if we have 3d instead of d, we have:

A' = (b*(3d))/c

now, we want A' = A. If b,c, and d are the same in both equations, we have that:

3bd/c = b*d/c

this will only be true if b or/and d are equal to 0.

If d remains unchanged, and we can play with the other two variables we have:

3b'd/c' = bd/c

3b'/c' = b/c

from this we can took that: if c' = c, then b' = b/3, and if b = b', then c' = 3c.

Of course, there are other infinitely large possible combinations that are also a solution for this problem where neither b' = b or c' = c
