Answer:

<h2>15 and 75</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

n-second\ number\\\\\dfrac{1}{5}n-first\ number\\\\n-\dfrac{1}{5}n=\dfrac{4}{5}n-difference\ between\ the\ two\ numbers\\\\\text{Equation:}\\\\\dfrac{4}{5}n=60\qquad\text{multiply both sides ny 5}\\\\\not5\cdot\dfrac{4}{\not5}n=(5)(60)\\\\4n=300\qquad\text{divide both sides by 4}\\\\\dfrac{4\!\!\!\!\diagup n}{4\!\!\!\!\diagup}=\dfrac{300}{4}\\\\n=75\\\\\dfrac{1}{5}n=\left(\dfrac{1}{5}\right)(75)=\dfrac{75}{5}=15

Solve x2 = 12x – 15 by completing the square. Which is the solution set of the equation? Solve x2 = 12x – 15 by completing the s
Svetlanka [38]

Answer: 6+\sqrt{21}\ \text{and}\ 6-\sqrt{21}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Quadratic equation is

x^2-12x+15=0

Solving by completing the square method

\Rightarrow x^2-2\cdot 6\cdot x+15=0\\\text{add and subtract 36}\\\Rightarrow x^2-2\cdot 6\cdot x+15+36-36=0\\\Rightarrow x^2-2\cdot 6\cdot x+36+(-36+15)=0\\\text{using}\ (a-b)^2=a^2+b^2-2ab\\\Rightarrow (x-6)^2-21=0\\\Rightarrow (x-6)^2=21\\\Rightarrow x-6=\pm \sqrt{21}\\\Rightarrow x=6\pm \sqrt{21}

The solution set of the equation is 6+\sqrt{21}\ \text{and}\ 6-\sqrt{21}

The diameter of a circle is 10 cm what is the angle measure of an arc Pi centimeters long
vredina [299]
We know that

[length of a circumference]=2*pi*r
diameter=10 cm
r=10/2-----> 5 cm
[length of a circumference]=2*pi*5-----> 10*pi cm

if 360° (full circle) has a length of -----------> 10*pi cm
 X°---------------------------> pi cm
X=pi*360/10*pi------> 36°

the answer is 36°
