<u>Define x:</u>
Let one of the numbers be x.
The other number is x + 2
<u>Construct equation:</u>
<span>twice the smaller is 16 more than the larger
</span>⇒2x = x + 2 - 16
<u>Solve x:</u>
2x = x + 2 - 16
x = -14
<u>Find the two numbers:</u>
Smaller number = x = -14
Larger number = x + 2 = -12
Answer: The two numbers are -14 and -12
Answer:
Hello! The answer would be

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
10.5
Step-by-step explanation:
225÷21.50
=10.46511
=10.5(3sf)
The answer is B because it’s not a straight line and x can not have an exponent of 2 bc it will make it nonlinear
Answer: x = 40 and y = 40
Step-by-step explanation:
We can write the equation for the area as: x*y = 1600
We can write the equation for the perimeter as: 2x + 2y = 160
An easy way to solve a question like this is to graph both equations on a graphing calculator, if you don't have one on you you can use Desmos
Graph both: y = 1600/x
and
y = 80 - x
Turns out you get x = 40 and y = 40
