Let the two numbers are x and y
Let larger number = x
and smaller number = y
it means
x-y = 0.77
Now it says larger number is increased 5 times
So it now becomes 5x
So second equation becomes
5x -y =77
Now we have to solve these two equations
x-y = 0.77 and 5x-y = 77
multiply first equation by -1 and then add both equations
-x+y = -0.77
Now on adding we get
-x+5x +y -y = 77-0.77
4x = 76.23
Divide both sides by 4
x=19.0575
We get the larger number , now subtract 0.77 from this , we will get the smaller number
y=19.0575-0.77=18.2875
y=18.2875
Hence the larger number = 19.0575
Smaller number = 18.2875

Step-by-step explanation:
P(bull's-eye) = 700/30000 x 100% = 2.33% ≈ 2%
option A is the correct answer.
If you treat multiplication as repeated a<span>ddition, then y</span>es, Juan is correct. Only equal groups can be multiplied.
Answer:
1) 6x = 21
2) x + y - 3
3) x/z = y
4) 2-x = p
Step-by-step explanation:
1. The product of a number x and 6 is 21
A product is a multiplication. A product of a and b is a * b.
We then have a product of x and 6, that x * 6, which we write usually in the format 6x.
is 21: that means it's equal to 21....
so 6x = 21.
2. The sum of the quantity x- 3 and y
The sum is an addition. The sum of a and b is a + b.
In this case, the first part is x - 3, the second part is y
So, x - 3 + y, which we usually rewrite as x + y - 3
3. The quotient of x and z is y
A quotient is a division.
So, quotient of x and z is x/z.
x/z = y
4. The difference of 2 and x is p.
A difference is a subtraction.
Difference of 2 and x is 2 - x
2 - x = p
