Let's call the two numbers a and b. So we know that the difference of the two numbers is 36:
a - b = 36
And we know that their sum is 286:
a + b = 286
We can use either of these equations to solve for one of the variables in terms of the other variable. Let's use the first and solve for a:
a - b = 36
a = 36 + b
Now we plug this into the other equation and solve for b there:
(36 + b) + b = 286
36 + 2b = 286
2b = 250
b = 125
Evaluate a^2 where a = -5:
a^2 = (-5)^2
Hint: | Evaluate (-5)^2.
(-5)^2 = 25:
Answer: 25
Answer:
29
Step-by-step explanation:
57 + 94= 151
so 180 - 151 = 29
hope this helps
