Answer:

The two numbers are 39 and 27.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find these numbers, set the first number equal to x. Then the second number can be described as x - 12. Using these two terms, you can add them together and set equal to 66.

x + x - 12 = 66

2x - 12 = 66

2x = 78

x = 39

Given this as the first number, put into the second equation to find the next.

x - 12

(39) - 12

27

Write an equation in standard form of the line passing through the points (3,3) and (-3,5)
Korvikt [17]

Answer:

The equation of line AB  with points (3,3) and (-3,5) is given as

: x + 3y = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the given points are A (3, 3) and B (-3,5).

Now, slope of any line is given as :

m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}

or, m = \frac{5-3}{-3 - 3}   = \frac{2}{-6}  = -\frac{1}{3}

Hence, the slope of the line AB is (-1/3)

Now , A POINT SLOPE FORM of an equation is

(y - y0)  = m (x - x0) ; (x0, y0)  is any arbitrary point on line.

So, for the point (3,3) the equation of the line is

y - 3y-3 = -\frac{1}{3} (x-3)   \implies 3y - 9 = 3 -x

Hence, the equation of line AB  with points (3,3) and (-3,5) is given as:

x + 3y = 12
