To solve this problem, we will setup a system.

We know that two numbers have a sum of 12 and a difference of 4.

So let's call our first number x and our second number y.

So we know that x + y = 12.

We can also say that x - y = 4.

Now rewrite the equations on top of each other.

<h2>x + y = 12</h2><h2>x - y = 4</h2><h2 />

Now we can use addition to solve this system.

When we add the equations together, the y's will cancel.

So we have 2x = 16.

Now divide both sides by 2 and x = 8.

Now plug an 8 back in for x in the first equation to find that y = 4.

So our numbers are 8 and 4.

A particle moves according to a law of motion s = f(t), t ≥ 0, where t is measured in seconds and s in feet. (If an answer does
NNADVOKAT [17]

The question is not clear, but it is possible to obtain distance, s, from the given function. This, I would show.

Answer:

s = 17 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Given f(t) = t³ - 8t² + 27t

Differentiating f(t), we have

f'(t) = 3t² - 16 t + 27

At t = 0

f'(t) = 27

This is the required obtainaible distance, s.

Function 1 is defined by the equation y=-1/4r-5<br> Function 2
steposvetlana [31]

Step-by-step explanation:

as just answered in the other question, the y-intercept is simply the y-value, when x=0.

it is -5 for function 1.

and function 2 clearly crosses the y-axis at y = -7, which is the y-intercept.

as -5 is greater than -7, function 1 had the greater y- intercept.

Calculate the size of each interior angle of a regular polygon with 14 sides
Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

154.285

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the interior angles of a 14-gon = (14-2)*180 = 2,160 degrees. There are 14 vertexes (vertices) for a 14-gon. It is 'regular' so all these angles are equal. By dividing 2160 (sum of all angles) by 14 (total amount of angles) we can see how much each angle is worth. So the interior angle of each is 154.285 degrees.

HELP ASAP
Oliga [24]

Answer:

27.5cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

you can cut the triangle to make two right triangles

so 11 is the height and the width is 2.5 since your cutting the triangle in half

so 11x2.5=27.5 since its a right triangle you have to divide by two 27.5/2=13.75

that's the answer for one of the triangles now multiply it by two since you need the two right triangle to make the other triangle so the answer is 27.5
