Answer:
<h2>x = 88.2</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
Look at the picture.
Use tangent:

We have a measure of the angle and length of the adjacent:


Substitute:
<em>multiply both sides by 500</em>

Let x = small number
Let y = large number
Because they are consecutive even numbers,they must have a difference of 2:
y-x=2
y=2+x
Eqn 1: x+(2+x)=14
Eqn 2: x(2+x)=48
2x+2=14
2x=12
x=6
This means y must be 8
so your two numbers are 6 and 8
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
a) set up the variables
Let x represent the first number Then y will represent the second number.
b) What is the equation that represents the above situation?
c) Solve the equation.
<u>Substitute x in the second equation and solve for y:</u>
- x + y = 51
- 2y + y = 51
- 3y = 51
- y = 51/3
- y = 17
<u>Then find x</u>
Answer:
y=-7x+13
Step-by-step explanation:
y=mx+b
m= your slope
b= your y intercept
