An integer is three more than another integer. Twice the larger integer is two less

Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

The integers are 4 and 7 or -2 and 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

You can make a system of equations with the description of the two integers.

1. x = y + 3

2. 2x + 2 = y^2

The simplest and the fastest way to solve this system in this case is substitution. You can substitute x for y + 3 in the second equation.

1. x = y + 3

2. 2(y + 3) + 2 = y^2

Now simplify and solve the second one. For convenience, I will just disregard the first equation for now.

2y + 6 + 2 = y^2

y^2 - 2y - 8 = 0

You can factor this equation to solve for y.

(y - 4) (y + 2) = 0

y = 4, y = -2

Now we can substitute the value of y for x in the first equation.

x = 7, x = 1

If sinX= 0.9, what is the value of cos X?<br><br> Round the value to the nearest thousandth.

SSSSS [86.1K]

Answer: sqrt(19)/10

Step-by-step explanation:

sinx=0.9

x=arcsin(0.9)

Insert x for cos(x):

cos(arcsin(0.9)=

Use identify $cos(arcsin(x))=\sqrt{1-x^{2} }$ , so

$\sqrt{1-(\frac{9}{10})^{2}} =\sqrt{\frac{19}{100} } =\frac{\sqrt{19}}{10}$

Sorry if this is confusing.

the ratio of pine trees to elm trees in a park is 7:11. How many pine trees are there in the park if there are 68 more elm trees

Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

<em>The number of </em><em>pine tree is 119</em><em> and the number of </em><em>elm tree is 187.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of pine trees to elm trees in a park is 7:11

Let us assume that the number of pine tree is 7x and the number of elm tree is 11x.

It is also given that, there are 68 more elm trees as compared to the pine trees.

i.e $11x=7x+68$

$\Rightarrow 11x-7x=68$

$\Rightarrow 4x=68$

$\Rightarrow x=17$

Hence, the number of pine tree = $7x=7\times 17=119$ and the number of elm tree = $11x=11\times 17=187$
