X and y are the numbers
y>x
sum (addition) of twice a number (2x) and larger number (y) is (=) 145
2x+y=145
difference between them is 55 (y is bigger so it would be x is subtracted from y)
y-x=55
so the equations are
2x+y=145 and
y-x=55
we could add x to both sides in the 2nd equation to obtain
y=x+55, but that doesn't really represent that the difference is 55, though they are the same euation
so I would say C and D only
Answer:
x = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
y = 14
14 x 2 = 28
Therefore:
3.5 x 2 = 7
Answer:
a = ±sqrt(3)
Step-by-step explanation:
a×a×a=a+a+a
Simplifying each side
a^3 = 3a
Divide each side by a
a^3 /a = 3a/a
a^2 = 3
Take the square root of each side
sqrt(a^2) = ±sqrt(3)
a = ±sqrt(3)
2√72 / √8 ± √2
If the denominator is √8 + √2,
2√72 / √8 + √2
= 2√(2*2*2*3*3) / √(2*2*2) + √2
= 2*2*3√2 / 2√2 + √2
= 12√2 / 3√2
= 4
The answer would be D because when you divide 10 by 4 you take one fourth out of ten
