Answer:

X = 51

Y = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

2 numbers: (Larger) Number 1 is x and Number 2 is y

The equation is x + y = 63

  • x = 3y +15
  • y = y

New equation is:

  • 3y + 15 + y = 63

Combine like variables:

  • 4y + 15 = 63

Solve:

  • 4y + 15 - 15 = 63 - 15
  • 4y = 48

Divide 4 from each side:

  • <em><u>y = 12</u></em>

To find x fill in the variables from the 'x =' equation:

  • x = 3y + 15
  • x = 3( 12) + 15
  • <em><u>x = 51</u></em>

HELP PLEASE I'M CRYING, EASY 2 QUESTIONS
horsena [70]

Answer:

12) 154   squared meters

13) 307  cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

12) A circle has area pi*r^2

r is half the diameter so half of 14 is 7

pi in this case is 22/7

A=22/7 * (7)^2

A=22/7  * 49

A=22     *49/7

A=22     *7

A=154 squared meters

13)  Area of rectangle is 10(18)=180

      Area of half a circle is .5*pi*r^2=.5*pi*9^2  

       Adding the two areas together would result in a total area of 307.2 squared centimeters
