Two numbers are of the ratio 3:5. If their difference is 18, find the numbers.

1 answer:

5 0

Est Answer: say the numbers are x and y......and y being the bigger number ... If the ratio is 5:3, then difference between ratio = 5-3 = 2 ... Substituting this x = 5y/3 in equation x-y=18 we get ... therefore x = 5 * 27/3 = 5*9 = 45 .... One number is 5 more than another. their sum is 53 what are the two numbers?

Order these numbers for lest to greatest 1/2 ,1.1 ,5/3 ,2, 0 ,0.4, -2 ,5/8

Nat2105 [25]

The least number should always start off with negatives if there are any. In this case there is so we can start with -2 as our least amount. Next are the small fractions. If you're allowed a calculator, I would use that to find what the decimals will look like for each fraction:

$\frac{1}{2} =0.5\\ \\ \frac{5}{3} =1.6666666666666666666666666666667\\ \\ \frac{5}{8} =0.625$

After -2 the next least number is 0 and the next one is the fraction or decimal closest to the number 0 which is 0.4

The next number would be from the fractions we solved earlier. 0.5 and 0.625 would follow 0.4 and then 1.1 and 1.6667(solved for from fraction).

Here is the list:

$-2,0,0.4,\frac{1}{2} ,\frac{5}{8} ,1.1,\frac{5}{3}$

Hope this helps!

Thе іmagе оf (-2, 5) is (1, 1).

dem82 [27]

Answer:

(6, -2)

Step-by-step explanation:

To get to x=1 from x=-2, you must add 3 to the x-coordinate. Only one answer choice has an x-coordinate that is 3 more than that of the given point:

3 + 3 = 6

The image point is (6, -2).

_____

Check

To get from a y-coordinate of 5 to an image point y-coordinate of 1, you must subtract 4. If you subtract 4 from the y-coordinate of (3, 2), you get 2-4 = -2, the y-coordinate in the chosen answer above.
