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

Mary spent half of her allowance going to the movies . She washed the family car and earned seven dollars . What is her weekly a
Debora [2.8K]
If Mary spent half of her allowance the equation will begin with 1/2x or 0.5x where x is her allowance and 0.5 is half of her allowance spent. Mary also earned 7 dollars by washing the car so this will be added to her allowance spent.
The problem says that after Mary has spent half of her allowance at the movies she was left with 18 dollars so that means that the equation must be equal to 18.

The equation you want to set up is

0.5x+7=18
Where, 18-7=11
0.5x=11
11/.5 = x
x = $22

Thus, Mary has a weekly allowance of 22 dollars.

For the function f(x) = |2x-7| - 3 find f(2)
olasank [31]
Evaluate abs(2 x - 7) - 3 where x = 2:abs(2 x - 7) - 3 = abs(2 2 - 7) - 3
2×2 = 4:abs(4 - 7) - 3
4 - 7 = -3:abs(-3) - 3
Since -3<=0, then abs(-3) = 3:3 - 3
3 - 3 = 0:Answer: 0
