Answer:
<em>The answer is 13</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
Two positive and consecutive old numbers are x and x - 2.
=> x(x - 2) = 143
=> x^2 - 2x - 143 = 0
=> x^2 + 11x - 13x - 143 = 0
=> x(x + 11) - 13(x + 11) = 0
=> (x + 11)(x - 13) = 0
=> x = -11 (invalid)
or x = 13 (valid), the remaining number is 13 - 2 = 11
=> The two numbers are 11 and 13, and the greater number is 13.

<span>If I have a bolt that has a diameter of 1.125 inches and a hole that's 1.300 inches with a tolerance of +/- 0.025 inches, what's the larger even tolerance I can have on the bolt to ensure it will pass through the hole? Answer: +/- 0.150 inches.</span>
Hi.
The first question is a direct variation — specifically y = 1.8x
In the second one (if my calculations are correct), it's not a direction variation.
Hope this helps :)
Calculations:
y = 1.8(3) = 5.4
y does not equal x, 2x, or -2x.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
When we scale an object by a scale factor, the side lengths become the scale factor times bigger than the previous sides. Therefore, with a scale factor of 6, the side lengths would be multiplied by 6.
Hope this helped!
