Similar triangles, so 24/32=33/32+x. cross multiply to find that 32*33=24(x+32). this gives you 1056=24x+768. subtract 768 from both sides to get 288 = 24x. divide both sides by 24 to get x=12

Fofino [41]

Let the number of pages read on day 1 be = x

Then on day 2 he read twice the pages from day one, it is = 2x

On 3rd day he read 6 pages less than 1st day, it is = x-6

Total pages are = 458

The equation becomes: x+2x+x-6=458

4x-6=458

4x=464

x=116

So on the third day, Aiden read x-6=116-6=110 pages.

mixer [17]

Answer:

4 and 6

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let's find all the pairs that add up to 10.

  • 1 + 9, 2 + 8, 3 + 7, 4 + 6, and 5 + 5

Next, we find the difference between the addends for each pair.

  • 9 - 1 = 8
  • 8 - 2 = 6
  • 7 - 3 = 4
  • 6 - 4 = 2
  • 5 - 5 = 0

As you can, see the numbers that add to 10 and have a different of 2 is 4 and 6.
