Answer:
The smaller number is 3. The number 3 squared is 9, plus the other number 5 squared, which is 25. when you add them, you get 34

Step-by-step explanation:
x = first number
y = second number
a. x+2 = y
b. x^2 + y^2 = 34
Replace y from equation a into equation b:
x^2 + (x+2)^2 = 34
Expand it
x^2 + x^2 + 4x + 4 = 34
2*x^2 + 4x = 30
2x^2 + 4x - 30=0
solving x:
x = -5 and x =3 , it says it is a positive number, then it is x is 3
and the second number, y = x + 2
y = 5
Lets test it!
3^2 + 5^ 2 = 9 + 25 = 34

Answer:

m∠PNO = 60°

m∠O = 33°

Step-by-step explanation:

∡NPO is 87° because it's a vertical angle with the 87° angle

3) ∡PNO is supplementary to the 120° angle (they must add to 180°)

4) m∠O = 180 - (60 + 87) = 33

krok68 [10]

Answer:

$3100

Step-by-step explanation:

You can determine this by multiplying 52 by 50, because you get 50 dollars for 52 weeks, then add 500 to it, because you get 500 dollars at first. 52 times 50 is equal to 2600, and 2600 + 500 is equal to 3100. You will receive $3100 over the course of 52 weeks.
