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

On three examinations, you have grades of 85, 78, and 84. There is still a final examination, which counts as one grade In order
Greeley [361]

Answer:

  • It's not possible to earn an A in the course
  • I must have a 73 or MORE to earn a B in the course

Step-by-step explanation:

The average obtained at the end of the course will be:

\frac{85+78+84+x}{4} = av

Where x is the grade obtained in the final examination and av is the final average. To obtain an A, av has to be at least 90, av≥90, and to obtain an B, av has to be at least 80, av≥80

  • Is an A in the course possible?

So, if we get 100 on the final average:

x = 100,

av = (85+78+84+100)/4 = 86,75 and  86,75∠90.

<em>Answer: No, the higher grade obtained would be 86,75.</em>

  • What grade you must have in the final to earn a B in the course

To earn a B, av≥80:

av= \frac{85+78+84+x}{4 \ }\geq  80\\ \frac{247+x}{4}\geq80   \\247+x\geq 80*4\\ x\geq 320-247\\ x\geq 73

<em>Answer: I must have a 73 or MORE to earn a B in the course</em>
