Answer:

the numbers are 31 and 14

Step-by-step explanation:

since the larger number is 17 more than the smaller number,

larger number= x

smaller number= x-17

x-17+x=45

2x=45+17

2x=62

x=31

x-17=31-17

Hey!

Hope this helps...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Generally what I like to do, to solve questions like this is to substitute the given answers into the equation to solve this faster...

Equation: x^2 + 10x + 12 = 36

A.) (-12)^2 + 10(-12) + 12 = 36

144 - 120 + 12 = 36

24 + 12 = 36

36 = 36

(2)^2 + 10(2) + 12 = 36

4 + 20 + 12 = 36

24 + 12 = 36

36 = 36


Since we found the answer with the first try, we already know the correct answer is A.

So...

The Correct answer is: A.) x=-12 or x=2

Please help I don’t understand
KIM [24]

Answer:

The equivalent ratios are:

16:10

8:5

48:30

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that the ratios are equivalent ratios. So all the ratios will simplify to the same ratio. We can use this to find the ratios.

given ratio is:

16:10

which simplifies to

8:5

We can observe that the second ratio will be same 8:5

Now,

\frac{8}{5} = \frac{x}{30}\\x = \frac{8}{5} * 30\\x = 48

Hence,

The equivalent ratios are:

16:10

8:5

48:30
