Answer:

first number = 8

second number = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

m + n = 24

n = 2m

then:

m + 2m = 24

3m = 24

m = 24/3

m = 8

n = 2m

n = 2*8

n = 16

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello, please consider the following.

m and n are the two numbers.

m + n = 24, right?

n = 2 m

We replace n in the first equation, it comes

m + 2m =24

3m = 24 = 3*8

So, m = 8 and n = 16

Thank you

90 students take a test.
Anika [276]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If there are 90 students and the ratio of boys to girls is 3:2, that means 3x+2x=90

Combine like terms: 5x=90

x=18

2x (girls)=36

3x (boys)=54

1/3 of the boys scored full marks, so 54/3=18 boys scored full marks

The number of girls who scored full marks is half of the number who did not score full marks means that 1/3 of the girls scored full marks. 36/3=12, so 12 girls scored full marks.

(I don't know what the question is sorry if it's incorrect but there's not enough information)

Hope this helps!

The system of equations shown is solved using the linear combination method
andriy [413]

Answer: When a system of two linear equations gives an answer of 0=0, there are infinitely many solutions. It also means that the graph represents parallel lines, so the answer is the third choice.

Step-by-step explanation: When it comes to systems of equations in algebra, you will see three types of solutions:

1. When you get an exact value & number for x and y, the system has <u>one solution</u> and is consistent/independent.

2. When you get 0=0 like in this case, the system has <u>infinitely many solutions</u> and is consistent/dependent.

3. When you get numbers that are not equal, for example, 3\neq 5, you have <u>many solutions</u> and the system is inconsistent/independent.
