Answer:

Larger number = 6.

Smaller number = 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the  lower number be x then the other number = 8-x.

Also;

5(8 - x) + 4x = 38

40 - 5x + 4x = 38

-x = -2

x = 2 = lower number.

Larger number = 8 - 2 = 6.

Answer:

6 and 2

Step-by-step explanation:

let the 2 numbers be x and y with x > y, then

x + y = 8 → (1)

5x + 4y = 38 → (2)

Rearrange (1) expressing x in terms of y by subtracting y from both sides

x = 8 - y → (3)

Substitute x = 8 - y into (2)

5(8 - y) + 4y = 38 ← distribute and simplify left side

40 - 5y + 4y = 38

40 - y = 38 ( subtract 40 from both sides )

- y = - 2 ( multiply both sides by - 1 )

y = 2

Substitute y = 2 into (3) for corresponding value of x

x = 8 - 2 = 6

The larger number is 6 and the smaller number is 2

Consider all seven-digit numbers that can be created from the digits 0-9 where the first and last digits must be odd and no digi
Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

1/4 or 0.25

Step-by-step explanation:

The total possibilities of any 7 digit number using 0-9 is :

9×10×10×10×10×10×10=9000000

To work out the total possibilities in this question :

We look at the conditions :

The first digit can only be 5 numbers :

1 , 3 , 5 , 7 , 9

Now we subtract 5 from 9 :

9-5 = 4

Since no repeats for 2 , 3 , 4, 5, 6:

9 , 8 , 7 , 6 , 5,  

5 possibilities for the last digit :

Total possibilities for this code :

4 × 9 × 8 × 7 × 6 × 5 × 5 = 302400

If it begins with 5 that is only 1 possibility for the first digit

1 × 9 × 8 × 7 × 6 × 5 × 5 = 75600

Now we make a fraction :

75600÷302400

Dividing top and bottom by 75600 gives you 1/4 or 0.25

Hope this helped and have a good day

Which property is used in the problem below?<br><br> 2(x+4)=2x+8
frutty [35]

Answer:

You would use the distributive property.

Step-by-step explanation:

2(x+4) = 2x+8

2x+8x = 2x+8

10x = 2x+8

10x - 2x = 2x-2x+8

8x = 8

8x/8 = 8/8

x = 1
