Answer:

This question is not as hard as it seems.

Let the first number = x.

The other number will be x - 16.

The sum of both the number is 52.

So, x+x-16 = 52

Which would simplify to 2x -16 = 52.

When I add 16 to both sides, it would give me 2x = 68.

Then, divide both sides by 2.

This leaves us with x = 34.

Since we have x, now x-16 would be 34-16 = 18.

The two numbers are 34 and 18, this answer is correct because both of them add up to give me 52.

HOPE THIS HELPS!

What is 9c+90&lt;-27?????​
antoniya [11.8K]
<h3>Answer:  c < -13</h3>

========================================

Work Shown:

9c + 90 < -27

9c + 90 - 90 < -27 - 90 .... see note 1

9c < -117

9c/9 < -117/9 ... see note 2

c < -13

-----------

note 1: I'm subtracting 90 from both sides to undo the "plus 90" that is happening on the left side

note 2: I divided both sides by 9 to undo the multiplication. The expression 9c is the same as 9*c or "9 times c". The inequality sign will <u>not</u> flip as we are dividing both sides by a positive number.

Rectangle ABCD is graphed in the coordinate plane. The following are the vertices of the rectangle: A(2,−3) B(4,−3) C(4,5) D(2,5
AveGali [126]

Answer:

21 unit square

Step-by-step explanation:

First you want to find the length and width of the rectangle using the distance formula:

d=√(x2-x1)²+(y2-y1)²

AB=√(6-3)²+ (-2 - -2)²

AB=√3² + 0

AB=√9

AB=3

BC=√(6-6)²+ (5 - -2)²

BC=√0 + 7²

BC=√49

BC=7

We can find the area by multiplying these two distances together:

A=(3)(7)

A=21 units square.

Nora ordered a set of purple and green pins. She received 50 pins, and 70% of them were
Paladinen [302]

Answer:

Nora received <u>35</u> purple pins.

Step-by-step explanation:

If Nora received 50 pins, and 70% of the pins were purple, to calculate the number of purple pins Nora received, we must find 70% of 50.

To find 70% of 50, we can multiply 50 by the decimal form of 70%:

50 * .7=35

Therefore, we can conclude that since 70% of the 50 pins Nora received were purple, and 70% of 50 is 35, Nora received 35 purple pins.
