This is a pythagorean triple --> 3-4-5
Although you notice it is doubled but with the same pattern --> 6-8-10
Thus, the hypotenuse is 10.
Answer:
35.34 and 16.66
Step-by-step explanation:
Given data
let the numbers be x and y
the smaller number = x
the larger number = y
x+y=52--------1
<em>The larger number is 2 less than twice the smaller number</em>
y=2x-2-------2
put y= 2x-2 in eqn 1
x+2x-2=52
3x-2=52
3x=52-2
3x=50
x= 50/3
x= 16.66
put x=16.66 in eqn 1 to find y
x+y=52
16.66+y= 52
y=52-16.66
y= 35.34
Hence the numbers are
35.34 and 16.66
Check
35.34+16.66= 52
C = $7s
independent variable ie the changing variable is s
dependent variable ie the non changing variable is c
Let's find out how much she spent every month.
4000 (starting money) - 2800 (remaining money) = 1200 spent over 3 months
1200/3 = 400 per month was spent
So if she continues to spend 400 a month?
How many months are left? 12 (months of the year) - 3 (months she already spent) = 9
So 9 (remaining months) * 400 (amt per month) = 3600 she'll spend at the going rate over 9 months.
But she only has 2800 left.
2800 (remaining) - 3600 (estimated total of spending) = -800
So she will be 800$ in debt at the end of the year at the current rate.
