Using the Pythagorean theorem:


Distance = √(13^2 - 12^2)

Distance = √(169 - 144)

Distance = √25

Distance = 5m

The sum of two numbers is 43 . The smaller number is 19 less than the larger number. What are the numbers?
Setler [38]
Let the smaller number be x and the larger number be y.
We can calculate this by using simultaneous equation, aka listing 2 equations out.
From given,
X + y = 43
Let this be equation no. 1
X + 19 = y
Let this number be equation 2.
We can do simultaneous equations either by substitute method or elimination. In this case I'm using substitute.
We can already obtain the value of y (in terms of x) in euqation no. 2, so all we gonna do is to put y into equation 1.
X + x + 19 = 43
Solve this by algebra.
2x = 43 - 19
X = 12
Now we know the exact value of x
Now substitute x = 12 into equation no. 2
12 + 19 = y
Y = 31
So the answer is 12 and 31
