Okay lets start by getting rid of the ones that don't have a difference of 6. We are now left with '12 and 18' and '6 and 14'. If we take a look we can see that '6 and 14' add up to 20. So it is clear that only '12 and 18' add up to 30 and have a difference of 6.

Answer:

Find out the numbers .

To prove

Let us assume that one number be x.

Let us assume that second number be y.

As given

The sum of two numbers is 30.

Than the equation becomes

x + y = 30

Their difference is 6.

x - y = 6

Thus two equation are .

x + y = 30 and x - y = 6

Subtracted  x - y = 6 from x + y = 30

x - x + y - (-y) = 30 - 6

y + y  = 24

2y = 24

y = \frac{24}{2}

y = 12

Put in the x - y = 6

x - 12 = 6

x = 6 + 12

x = 18

Therefore the two numbers are 12 and 18 .

ms evans went to the store to buy some cupcakes. she brought 129 cupcakes. she wants to put 5 cupcakes in each box.how many boxe
NeTakaya
129 divided by 5 is equal to 25 with a remainder of 4. 

This means that she will need a total of 26 boxes, but only 25 of them will have 5 cupcakes in them. The last one will have 4 cupcakes.

ratelena [41]
You cannot solve this equation, because you have no y or x values. However, you can change the equation to equal x.

MATH HELP PLEASE 50 POINTS:

Answer:

f(x)=-a(x+2)(2x-1)(x-3) where a>0.

To graph the the polynomial, begin in the left top of quadrant 2. Then draw downwards to the first real zero on the x-axis at -2. Cross the x-axis and then curve back up to 1/2 on the x-axis. Cross through again and curve back down to cross for the last time at 3 on the x-axis. The graph then ends going down towards the right in quadrant 4. It forms an s shape.

Step-by-step explanation:

The real zeros are the result of setting each factor of the polynomial to zero. By reversing this process, we find:

  • zero -2 is factor (x+2)
  • zero 1/2 is factor (2x-1)
  • zero 3 is factor (x-3)

We write them together with an unknown leading coefficient a which is negative so -a.

f(x)=-a(x+2)(2x-1)(x-3) where a>0

The leading coefficient of a polynomial determines the direction of the graph's end behavior.

  • A positive leading coefficient has the end behavior point up when an even degree and point opposite directions when an odd degree with the left down and the right up.
  • A negative leading coefficient has the end behavior point down when an even degree and point opposite directions when an odd degree with the left up and the right down.
  • This graph has all odd multiplicity. The graph will cross through the x-axis each time at its real zeros.

To graph the the polynomial, begin in the left top of quadrant 2. Then draw downwards to the first real zero on the x-axis at -2. Cross the x-axis and then curve back up to 1/2 on the x-axis. Cross through again and curve back down to cross for the last time at 3 on the x-axis. The graph then ends going down towards the right in quadrant 4. It forms an s shape.
