Answer:

The answer is 22

The sum of two numbers is 48:

x + y = 48 ⇒ x = 48 - y

One third of one number is 5 greater than one sixth of another number:

1/3x =5 + 1/6 y

1/3(48 - y) = 5 + 1/6y

1/3 * 48 - 1/3 * y = 5 + 1/6 y

16 - 1/3y = 5 + 1/6y

16 - 5 = 1/6y + 1/3y

11 = 1/6y + 2/6y

11 = 3/6y

y = 11 * 6 / 3

y = 22

x = 48 - y

x = 48 - 22

x = 26

The smallest number is 22.

Answer:

k= -7

Step-by-step explanation:

multiple both sides of the equation by 56.

16k - 21 = -133

move the constant to the right hand side and change its sign.

16k = -133 + 21

Calculate the sum.

16k= -112

Divide both sides by 16.

k = -7

Solution is K = -7

Part two.

Take away 19.5 from 40 to get your answer.

your answer is then less than forty so it's the symbol <.

I am not entirely sure on this second part I would get someone to double check it as I'm not the best at inequalities and such. If any help is needed with what I done just ask.

Answer:

1/9^5

Step-by-step explanation:

$\dfrac{9^2}{9^7}=\dfrac{9\cdot 9}{9\cdot 9\cdot 9\cdot 9\cdot 9\cdot 9\cdot 9}=\dfrac{1}{9\cdot 9\cdot 9\cdot 9\cdot 9}=\boxed{\dfrac{1}{9^5}}$

An exponent is an indicator of repeated multiplication. As you can see, factors in the numerator cancel those in the denominator, so the result is the difference of the exponents.

At a bake sale there were 52 items sold total. If 24 of the items sold were cookies and the rest were brownies what is the ratio

Radda [10]

52=24 + b
to find b, you just subtract (52-24)
28 to 24 is our ratio
we can simplify this (just like fractions!) since both are even, let’s do it by 2!
28/2 = 14 and 24/2 = 12
simplify once more and you get our ANSWER: 7:6
