Let us say that the numbers are x and y. The given clues
are:
1. x – y = 16 (so
x is the larger number)
2. y / x = 5 / 7
rewriting eqtn 2 in terms of y:
y = (5/7) x
combining 1 and 2:
x – (5/7) x = 16
(2/7) x = 16
x = 56
y = (5/7) x = 40
So the two numbers are 56 and 40.

Answer:</h3>
<u>It squares the amount you scaled it by.</u>
<h3>
Step-by-step explanation:</h3>
For example, imagine that you had 2 by 2 square, and then you put it through a scale factor of 2.
Now each side length would be double of what it once was.
But when you multiply the new lengths together, the area would be of 4 times more.
(Original Equation) 2 * 2 = 4
(Scale Factor of 2) 4 * 4 = 16
So when the scale factor is made, the area would be squared to the multiple that you scaled it by.
<em>***A square root is a number times itself.</em>
<em>(eg): 3 * 3 = </em><em>9</em>
<em> 15 * 15 = </em><em>225</em>
<em>9 and 225 would be the square root in these problems.</em>

Answer:900
Step-by-step explanation:
900/9=100
100x9=900
First, you gotta simplify. There’s really nothing to simplify so just take it out of the parenthesis.
2x-8=2x-4
Now turn the -8 into a +8. Add it on each side.
2x=2x+8
Now turn the 2x on the right into a negative. Do the same thing you did with the 8.
Now it’s:
0 = 8
That means there’s no solution.
Hope this helped :)
