The sum of two numbers is 46. The larger number is 14 more than the smaller number. What are the numbers?

Let x and y be the numbers, where x > y;
We have the equation: x + y = 46 and x = 14 + y;
Then, 14 + 2y = 46;
2y = 32;
y = 16;
x = 30;

$\qquad\qquad\huge\underline{{\sf Answer}}♨$

Let's solve ~

Assume width of rectangle be " x ", length = 3×width + 8 = 3x + 8 ~

Now, Perimeter of rectangle is :

$\qquad \sf \dashrightarrow \:2(l + w) = 56$

$\qquad \sf \dashrightarrow \:2(3x + 8 + x) = 56$

$\qquad \sf \dashrightarrow \:2(4x + 8) = 56$

$\qquad \sf \dashrightarrow \:4x + 8 = 56 \div 2$

$\qquad \sf \dashrightarrow \:4x + 8 = 28$

$\qquad \sf \dashrightarrow \:4x = 28 - 8$

$\qquad \sf \dashrightarrow \:x = 20\div 4$

$\qquad \sf \dashrightarrow \:x =5 \: cm$

Hence, width = x = 5 cm

$\qquad \sf \dashrightarrow \:l = 3w + 8$

$\qquad \sf \dashrightarrow \:l = 3(5)+ 8$

$\qquad \sf \dashrightarrow \:l = 15+ 8$

$\qquad \sf \dashrightarrow \:l =23 \:cm$

And, length = 26 cm

Hi I need help :( Pls show your working..Will give brainliest for helpful answer

Basile [38]

Answer:

number 10

dy/dx =(dy/dt).(dt/dx)

now find

dy/dt=4t-1. , dt/dx=1

so : dy/dx=(4t-1).(1)

dy/dx= 4t-1 ,we have x=t-3-----> t=x+3

subtitute at t

dy/dx= 4(x+3)-1=4x+12-1= 4x+11

Answer:

9x + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

6x + 5y + 3x + 7 - 5y ← collect like terms

= (6x + 3x ) + (5y - 5y ) + 7

= 9x + 0 + 7

= 9x + 7
