Answer:

<u>The smaller number is 8 and the bigger number is 13</u>

<u>The correct equation form is B. 2x + 5 = 3x - 3</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Smaller number = x

Bigger number = x + 5

Sum of the numbers = x + x + 5 = 3 - 3x

Let's solve the equation for the sum:

x + x + 5 = 3x - 3

2x + 5 = 3x - 3

2x - 3x = - 3 - 5 (Subtracting 5 at both sides)

-x = - 8

x = 8 (Multiplying by - 1 at both sides)

<u>The smaller number is 8 and the bigger number is 13</u>

<u>The correct answer is B. 2x + 5 = 3x - 3</u>

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

Triangular Inequalities state that in a triangle, the sides must always be less than the sum of the other two.

You would have sides x, 2x, 3x in this case and use the inequality a+b>c.

if...

a=x, b=2x, c=3x

then...

x+2x>3x

3x>3x which is false.

Therefore you cannot make a triangle with sides proportional to 1, 2, and 3.

These two matrices are unable to be added due to dimensional mismatch? True, false, both, unable to answer with the info given
Hoochie [10]

Answer:

false

Step-by-step explanation:

\left[\begin{array}{c}-4\end{array}\right] +\left[\begin{array}{c}7\end{array}\right] =\left[\begin{array}{c}3\end{array}\right]

Both of the matrices are 1 x 1 ("one by one"), so they can be added to produce a 1 x 1 matrix.

To add (or subtract) two matrices, they must be the same size.

(m x n) + (m x n) = (m x n)

m x n  means a matrix has  m  rows and  n  columns.  Dimensions are always named in that order:  rows, then columns.

Solve the following for y: 9x − 3y = 18 (5 points) y = 3x + 6 y = 3x − 6 y = −3x − 6 y = −3x + 6
choli [55]

Answer:

y = 3x - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

given 9x - 3y = 18

isolate - 3y by subtracting 9x from both sides of the equation

- 3y = 18 - 9x ( divide all terms by - 3 )

y = \frac{18}{-3} - \frac{9x}{-3}

  = - 6 + 3x = 3x - 6
