Let, the numbers are: 8x, 5x
It is given that, 8x - 5x = 24
3x = 24
x = 24/3
x = 8

So, 8x = 8(8) = 64 
also, 5x = 5(8) = 40

In short, Numbers would be 40 and 64

Hope this helps!

It would be 28-10=x because your ending up with 28 after earning 10 you would get that. Hope this works!

–3.4 + (–8 + 2) = [ ? + (–8)] + 2<br><br> whats the missing number
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]
I suppose what makes this question annoying is that there is the question mark so what i'll do first is substitute the question mark with x. also, there are annoying parenthesis so we'll first eliminate the ones we don't need. now we just have to solve for x. -3.4 + (-8 + 2) = (x + (-8)) + 2 adding a negative number is subtracting that number so x + (-8) = x - 8 -3.4 + 2 - 8 = x - 8 + 2 -3.4 -6 = x - 6 x = -3.4 make sure you are aware that the negative sign belongs to the number after it so -2 + 4 is not -(2+4) = -6 but rather 4 - 2 = 2. let me know if you have any questions!

(11k^4 - 4m) + (-2k^4 - 15m)
Add -2k^4 to 11k^4. This would be the same as subtracting 2k^4 from 11k^4
9k^4 - 4m - 15m
Add -15m to -4m. This would be the same as subtracting 15m from -4m
Final Answer: 9k^4 - 19m

Word Form: Nine times the variable k to the forth power minus nineteen times the variable m.

What is the equation in point-slope form of a line that passes through the points (7, −8) and (−4, 6) ?
Aleks04 [339]
First you differentiate to find the gradient

dy/dx = (6 - - 8) / (-4 - 7)
          = 14 / -11
          = - 14/11

Then you use this formula
y - y1 = m (x - x1)

y1 being the y coordinate
x1 being the x coordinate
m being the gradient (or slope)

y - 6 = -14/11 (x - - 4)
y - 6 = -14/11x - 56/11
y = -14/11x + 10/11
