Answer:

2y+x=5

5x-y-3

Step-by-step explanation:

Two times of the larger number which is y is 2y added to the smaller number x is equal to 5 . Which is 2y+x=5

The difference of five times the smaller number and larger number is 5x-y

And the resulting answer is 3

ie..5x-y=3 , when the 3 crosses to the other side it becomes 5x-y-3=0

hence,the equation 5x-y-3

Is the decimal form of 13/3 a rational number? explain

Bumek [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

The word 'rational' in 'rational numbers' comes from the word 'ratio.' That is because rational numbers are those numbers which can be obtained when one integer is divided by another integer. For example, the number 8 is a rational number because it results when the integer 24 is divided by the integer 3, as in the ratio 24/3.

Can u help me. if answer is correct, i will give u brainliest

Answer:

135 units²

Step-by-step explanation:

The area (A) of a parallelogram is calculated as

A = bh ( b is the base and h the perpendicular height )

To calculate h use Pythagoras' identity on the right triangle on the left

h² + 8² = 17²

h² + 64 = 289 ( subtract 64 from both sides )

h² = 225 ( take the square root of both sides )

h = $\sqrt{225}$ = 15 , thus

A = 9 × 15 = 135 units²

Gina puts $ 4500 into an account earning 7.5% interest compounded continuously. How long will it take for the amount in the acco

Elza [17]

$~~~~~~ \textit{Continuously Compounding Interest Earned Amount} \\\\ A=Pe^{rt}\qquad \begin{cases} A=\textit{accumulated amount}\dotfill & \$5150\\ P=\textit{original amount deposited}\dotfill & \$4500\\ r=rate\to 7.5\%\to \frac{7.5}{100}\dotfill &0.075\\ t=years \end{cases}$

$5150=4500e^{0.075\cdot t} \implies \cfrac{5150}{4500}=e^{0.075t}\implies \cfrac{103}{90}=e^{0.075t} \\\\\\ \log_e\left( \cfrac{103}{90} \right)=\log_e(e^{0.075t})\implies \log_e\left( \cfrac{103}{90} \right)=0.075t \\\\\\ \ln\left( \cfrac{103}{90} \right)=0.075t\implies \cfrac{\ln\left( \frac{103}{90} \right)}{0.075}=t\implies\stackrel{\textit{about 1 year and 291 days}}{ 1.8\approx t}$
