Answer:

the numbers are 9 and 27

Step-by-step explanation:

equation to the problem: x+y=36

one number (y) is 18 times greater than the other number (x): x+18=y

plug in the 2nd equation to the first equation (systems of equations):

x+(x+18)=36

solve the equation:

2x+18=36

*minus 18 on both sides*

2x=18

*divide the whole equation by 2 to get the value of just one x*

x=9

since variable x is the n smaller number, add 18 to 9 to get the 2nd number:

18+9= 27

y=27

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a+b=36

lets name the 2 numbers a,b

b=a+18

a+a+18=36

2a=36-18

2a=18

a=9

b=27

Nicholas drew a triangle with 45, 35, and 100 degree angles. Is there another triangle with the same three angles but different
Anna11 [10]

Answer:

Yes, there are infinite triangles with the same three angles but different side lengths

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

If two triangles are similar, then the ratio of its corresponding sides is proportional and its corresponding angles are congruent

therefore

There are infinite triangles with the same three angles but different side lengths

The total stopping distance T for a vehicle is T = 2.5x + 0.5x 2 , where T is in feet and x is the speed in miles per hour. Appr
Kobotan [32]

Answer:

%  change in stopping distance = 7.34 %

Step-by-step explanation:

The stooping distance is given by

T = 2.5 x + 0.5 x^{2}

We will approximate this distance  using the relation

f (x + dx) = f (x)+ f' (x)dx

dx = 26 - 25 = 1

T' =  2.5 + x

Therefore

f(x)+f'(x)dx = 2.5x+ 0.5x^{2} + 2.5 +x

This is the stopping distance at x = 25

Put x = 25 in above equation

2.5 × (25) + 0.5× 25^{2} + 2.5 + 25 = 402.5 ft

Stopping distance at x = 25

T(25) = 2.5 × (25) + 0.5 × 25^{2}

T(25) = 375 ft

Therefore approximate change in stopping distance = 402.5 - 375 = 27.5 ft

%  change in stopping distance = \frac{27.5}{375} × 100

%  change in stopping distance = 7.34 %

A person drinks 1 pint of milk a day. At this rate how many gallons will a person drink in a leap year (366 days)?
Diano4ka-milaya [45]
OK. SO first you need to know how many pints are in a gallon.  ( one gallon = 8 quarts ) 

One day = one pint. So we want to find what 366 days equals. 1*366=366 pints in 366 days. We now have 366 pints. We need to convert that to gallons. One gallon equals 8 quarts, so we divide 366 by 8. 366/8= 45.75

So in one leap year a person drinks 45.75 gallons of milk

If that doesn't make sense, ask and i can re explain. Hope that helped! <span />
