Answer:

Larger number: 38

Smaller number: 19

Step-by-step explanation:

We have two numbers, the smaller number (we will call it x), and the larger number (we will call it y).

We know that y is twice x, so we can write it like:

y = 2x

We also know that if we subtract y minus 12 the result is 7 more than x; wee can write this as:

y-12=x+7

With these two equations, we can substitute y and we get:

<em>2x - 12 = x+7</em>

Now we solve:

<em>2x - x = 7 + 12</em>

x = 19<em> the smaller number is 19</em>

Now we solve for the larger number:

<em>y = 2x</em>

<em>y = 2*19</em>

y=38 <em>The larger number is 38</em>

***URGENT*** PLEASE HELP ME ASAP, ITS DUE TODAY!!!
vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:

Construct MN.

Since M is the midpoint of OA, OM = MA

Similarly, N is the midpoint of OB.

Thus, ON = NB.

Now, in Δs OMN and OAB,

∠MON = ∠AOB (common angle)

(sides are in proportional ratio; OA = 2OM and OB = 2ON)

∴ Δs OMN and OAB are similar (2 sides are in proportion, with the included angle)

Since they are similar, then ∠OMN = ∠OAB (corresponding angles of similar triangles are equal)

But since ∠OMN = ∠OAB, then that means MN || AB (corresponding angles of two lines must be equal since they also sit relative to the transverse line, OA)

Thus, AB || MN (QED)

A student solved 3/x−4=x/7 in six steps, as shown.
Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

Option A.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is

\dfrac{3}{x-4}=\dfrac{x}{7}

Step 1: Multiply both sides by (x-4).

3=\dfrac{x(x-4)}{7}

Step 2: Multiply both sides by 7.

21=x(x-4)

Step 3: Using distributive property.

21=x^2-4x

Step 4: Isolate all terms on one side.

0=x^2-4x-21

Step 5: Find factors by splitting the middle term.

0=x^2-7x+3x-21

0=x(x-7)+3(x-7)

0=(x-7)(x+3)

Step 6: Using zero product property, we get

x=-3, x=7

It means student solved the equation correctly.

Therefore, the correct option is A.

A) f(-4)-f(-5)=-3- (-11)=-3+11=8
f(-2)-f(-3)=13-5= 8
f(0)-f(-1)=29-21= 8
f(2)-f(1)=45-37=8
f(3)-f(2)=53-45=8
all are 8

b) f(-3)-f(-5)= 5- (-11)= 5+11=16
f(-2)-f(-4)=13-(-3)=13+3=16
f(1)- f(-1)=37-21= 16
f(3)-f(1)=53-37=16

c) f(-2)-f(-5)=13-(-11)=13+11=24
f(-1)-f(-4)=21-(-3)=21+3=24
f(0)-f(-3)=29-5=24
f(1)-f(-2)=37-13=24
f(2)-f(-1)=45-21=24

d) The differences have the same ratio.
cause is a linear function f(x)=ax+b
f(x+3)-f(x)=a(x+3)+b-ax-b=ax+3a-ax=3a
f(x+2)-f(x)=2a
f(x+1)-f(x)=a
 so it is the same for every x
