Hello from MrBillDoesMath
Answer: 12, 9
Discussion:
Let x be the first number and y the second number. The form the problem statement:
x + y = 21
x - y = 3
Add the two equations. This gives:
(x + x ) + ( y-y) = 21 + 3 =>
2x + 0 = 24 =>
x = 12
Since x -y =3, substituting in the value of x gives, 12 - y = 3 so y = 9
Thank you,

Answer:
2
Step-by-step explanation:
Its pretty easy math
What are we supposed to be basing this off of? is there no additional information?
Answer:
The correct answer is B.
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to find this, calculate out the discriminant for each of the following equations. If the discriminant is a perfect square, then it can be factored.
Discriminant = b^2 - 4ac
The only of the equations that does not yield a perfect square is B. The work for it is done below for you.
Discriminant = b^2 - 4ac
Discriminant = 7^2 - 4(2)(-5)
Discriminant = 49 + 40
Discriminant = 89
Since 89 is not a perfect square, we cannot factor this.
To convert from a percentage to a decimal, move the decimal twice to the left
11% = 0.11
200% = 2.00
20.07% = 0.2007
198.4% = 1.984
Hope this helps!
