Let's call the two numbers
and
.
Given these variables, we can say:
, based on the first sentence in the problem.
Also, remember that the reciprocal of a number is simply 1 divided by the number. Thus, we can say that:

To solve, we can simply substitute
in for
in the second equation and solve.


- Get terms on the left side to a common denominator for easier addition


- Cross multiplication (
)


- Subtract
from both sides of the equation

- Factor left side of the equation

Now, notice that we have found two solutions, but the problem is only asking for one. This <em>likely </em>means that one of our solutions is extraneous. Let's take a look. Remember that the smaller positive number is equal to 14 less than the larger number. However,
,
Since
is not positive in this case,
is not a solution.
Thus,
is our only solution. In this case,
,
which means that the smaller number is 14 and the larger number is 28.
To double the principle the formula is
2p=p e^rt
2=e^rt
2=e^0.12t
Solve for t
T=(log(2)÷log(e))÷0.12
T=5.78 years
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
Recall that the area of a triangle is given by:

In this case, the base is <em>x</em> and the height is <em>y</em>. Hence:

We can write the following ratios:

Solve for <em>x</em> and <em>y</em>:

Substitute:

And simplify. Hence:

In conclusion, our answer is D.
I think the answer is 0
8*3=24
24 *0=0
