The sum of two numbers is 38. Their difference is 50. What are the numbers? 20 POINTS

1 answer:

7 0

Let, the numbers = x,y
Now, x + y = 38
x - y = 50, x = 50 + y

Substitute it into first equation,
50 + y + y = 38
2y = 38 - 50
y = -12 / 2
y = -6

Substitute it into first equation,
x - 6 = 38
x = 38 + 6 = 44

So, your final answer is x = 44 & y = -6

Hope this helps!

If M angle 4=25 degrees, then what is M angle 8? Please help me, I need this done today, and I have tried everything

Answer:

65 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is not complete but we can assume that m<4 and m<8 are complementary i.e they both act at right angle.

If the both act at right angle, then m<4 + m<8 = 90

Given

m<4 = 25°

Substitute into the formula

m<4 + m<8 = 90

m<8 = 90 - m<4

m<8 = 90 - 25

m< 8 = 65 degrees

Hence the measure of m<8 is 65 degrees

<em>Note that we assumed that both angles acts at right angles </em>
