Answer:

m + n = 15

m - 3 = n

The numbers are 9 and 6

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question,

The sum of two numbers is fifteen; the first number is m and the second number is n. To translate to a system of equations, we can write that

m + n = 15 ..... (1)

Also, from the question,

One number is three less than the other,

Also, to translate to a system of equations, we can write that

m - 3 = n ...... (2)

If desired, we can determine m and n

From equation (1)

m + n = 15

Then,

m = 15 - n ...... (3)

Put the value of m in equation (3) into equation (2)

m - 3 = n

Then

15 - n - 3 = n

15 - 3 = n + n

12 = 2n

n = 12/2

∴ n = 6

For m, put the value of n into equation 3

m = 15 - n

m = 15 - 6

m = 9

∴ m = 9 and n = 6

Hence, the numbers are 9 and 6

Consider the equation showing the distributive property.

Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

D = 31

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the equation showing the distributive property.

84 +93 = 3 (28+ D)

The unknown value we are asked to find is D

Hence:

84 + 93 = 84 + 3D

Collect like terms

84 - 84 + 93 = 3D

93 = 3D

D = 93/3

D = 31

Therefore, the unknown value that would make the equation true is 31

Taylor's family took a road trip to Mount Rushmore. Taylor slept through the last 21% of the trip. If Taylor fell asleep after t

lesantik [10]

The total length of the trip is the number of miles in the trip

The total length of the trip is 974 miles

<h3>How to determine the total length?</h3>

The given parameters are:

Proportion of sleep = 21%
Distance awake = 711 miles

If Taylor sleeps for 21% of the trip, then Taylor was awake for 79% of the trip

Represent the total length of the trip with T.

So, we have:

73% * T = 711 miles

Divide both sides by 73%

T = 974 miles

Hence, the total length of the trip is 974 miles

5. Which image in the collage to the right is an

OleMash [197]

Answer:

B. A water wheel in a dry river

Step-by-step explanation:

Work is said to be done when a force moves a body or an object through a certain distance in the direction of the force. Thus for work to be done, force and distance are required.

i.e Work done = Force x distance

It is measured in Joules.

Also, the work done by an object could be a measured of potential energy.

So that,

Work done = potential energy = mass x gravitational force x height

Considering the collage in the question, since the water wheel is in a dry river no work is done. Water wheel is a device that functions through the flow of water body, thus causing its rotation.

∫∫(x+y)dxdy ,d là miền giới hạn bởi x²+y²=1

igor_vitrenko [27]

It looks like you want to compute the double integral

$\displaystyle \iint_D (x+y) \,\mathrm dx\,\mathrm dy$

over the region D with the unit circle x ² + y ² = 1 as its boundary.

Convert to polar coordinates, in which D is given by the set

D = {(r, θ) : 0 ≤ r ≤ 1 and 0 ≤ θ ≤ 2π}

and

x = r cos(θ)

y = r sin(θ)

dx dy = r dr dθ

Then the integral is

$\displaystyle \iint_D (x+y)\,\mathrm dx\,\mathrm dy = \iint_D r^2(\cos(\theta)+\sin(\theta))\,\mathrm dr\,\mathrm d\theta \\\\ = \int_0^{2\pi} \int_0^1 r^2(\cos(\theta)+\sin(\theta))\,\mathrm dr\,\mathrm d\theta \\\\ = \underbrace{\left( \int_0^{2\pi}(\cos(\theta)+\sin(\theta))\,\mathrm d\theta \right)}_{\int = 0} \left( \int_0^1 r^2\,\mathrm dr \right) = \boxed{0}$
