Answer:
The sum of two numbers is 240. The larger number is 6 less than twice the smaller. Find the numbers.
----------
Let the smaller be "x" ; Larger is "2x-6"
EQUATION:
x + 2x-6 = 240
3x= 246
x = 82 (smaller)
2x-6 = 158 (larger)
Step-by-step explanation:
<span>The pair of integers that I chose are:
(a) sum is –3
5 + (-8) = -3
(b) difference is –5
2 - 7 = -5
(c) difference is 2
14 -12 = 2
(d) sum is 0
2 - 2 = 0</span>

Answer:
From the sum of angles on a straight line, given that the rotation of each triangle attached to the sides of the octagon is 45° as they move round the perimeter of the octagon, the angle a which is supplementary to the angle turned by the triangles must be 135 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that the triangles are eight in number we have;
1) (To simplify), we consider the five triangles on the left portion of the figure, starting from the bottom-most triangle which is inverted upside down
2) We note that to get to the topmost triangle which is upright , we count four triangles, which is four turns
3) Since the bottom-most triangle is upside down and the topmost triangle, we have made a turn of 180° to go from bottom to top
4) Therefore, the angle of each of the four turns we turned = 180°/4 = 45°
5) When we extend the side of the octagon that bounds the bottom-most triangle to the left to form a straight line, we see the 45° which is the angle formed between the base of the next triangle on the left and the straight line we drew
6) Knowing that the angles on a straight line sum to 180° we get interior angle in between the base of the next triangle on the left referred to above and the base of the bottom-most triangle as 180° - 45° = 135°.
