Let x = big number

Let y = small number

x + y = 66...Equation A

2y = x + 15...Equation B

We have two equations in two unknowns.

x + x + 15 = 66

2x = 66 - 15

2x = 54

x = 54/2

x = 27

Plug x = 27 into EITHER equation above to find y.

I will use Equation A.

x + y = 66

27 + y = 66

y = 66 - 27

y = 39

The two numbers are 27 and 39.

Answer:

Numbers are 27 , 39.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The sum of two numbers is 66. two times the smaller number is 15 more then the larger number .

To find : what are the numbers.

Solution : We have given sum of two numbers is 66

Let the smaller number = x

Larger number = y.

According to question :

two times the smaller number is 15 more then the larger number .

Two times the smaller number =2x

15 more than the larger number y + 15.

2x = y + 15.

Now subtract 15 form both sides

y = 2x - 15.

Second condition :

Sum of two number is  66.

x + y =66

Now plug the y =2x -15.

x + 2x -15 = 66

3x -15 = 66.

On adding both sides by 15

3x = 66 + 15.

3x = 81

On dividing both sides by 3

x = 27.

Then , 27 + y = 66.

On subtracting both sides by 27.

y = 39.

Therefore, Numbers are 27 , 39.

Water flows at a rate of 8000 cubic inches per minute into a cylindrical tank. The tank has a diameter of 128 inches and a heigh
beks73 [17]

Answer:

The height of the water = 6.2 in. to the nearest tenth

Step-by-step explanation:

∵ The rate of flows of water into the tank = 8000 in.³/min.

∴ The volume of the water in the tank after 10 min. = 8000 × 10 = 80000 in.³

∵ The water take the shape of the tank

∴ The height of the water = volume of water ÷ Area of the base of the tank

∵ The tank is cylinder with diameter 128 in. and height 72 in.

∴ The area of the base of the tank = π(128/2)²

∴ The height of the water = \frac{80000}{\pi(64)^{2}}=6.2169899

∴ The height of the water = 6.2 in. to the nearest tenth

____ [38]

Answer:

a) g(x) = f(x) + 3

So g(x) is a vertical translation of f(x), 3 units upwards

b) g(x) = 3x² - 1 + 3

g(x) = 3x² + 2

The graph has shifted 3 units upwards, so has the vertex.

The vertex of f is (0,-1)

Whereas the vertex of g is (0,2)

-1 + 3 = 2

What is the solution to the following system of equations?
fenix001 [56]

Answer: (5,0)

Step-by-step explanation:

x - 3y =5 -----------(1)

2x + y = 10 ----------(2)

By elimination method, multiply eqn(1) by 2

2x - 6y = 10 ------------(3)

eqn(3) - eqn(2)

-7y = 0

Divide bothside by -7

y= 0

Now, we substitute the value of y in eqn(1)

x - 3(0) = 5

x - 0 = 5

x=5

Therefore,x=5 and y=0
