Answer:
x= 62
y= 54
Step-by-step explanation:
Step one:
given data
let the numbers be x and y and the larger be x the smaller be y
The difference between two numbers is 8
x-y= 8-----------1
If the larger is subtracted from three times the smaller, the difference is 100
3y-x=100------------2
from eqn 1, x= 8+y
put this in eqn 2
3y-(8+y)=100
3y-8-y=100
collect liker terms
3y-y-8=100
2y=108
y= 54
put y= 54 in eqn 1
x-y=8
x-54= 8
x= 8+54
x=62

you can ask for any doubt
Well, 9/10 is the same as 9 10ths, the decimal that represents that is 0.9 because it is also 9 10ths
If we draw a perpendicular line from one of the vertices of the triangle we get 2 right angled triangles each with altitude 9 ins and vertex angle = 30 degrees. So:-
cos 30 = 9 /h where h = one of the sides of the equilateral triangle
h = 9 / cos 30 = 10.392 inches
Therefore the perimeter of the triangle = 3 * 10.392 = 31.1769 ins
Answer is 31.18 inches to the nearest hundredth.
