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:

Step-by-step explanation:

a). sphere volume =4 /3πr3            radius= diameter/2 = 10/2    R=5

    4/3*3.14*5^3  = 4/3*3.14*125 = 4/3*392.5 = 523.3333333 =  V=523

b). take the volume of the snow scoops and volume of the cylinder container and take 75398 and divide it by 523 which is = 144.16

c). and take the amount of snow scooped cones made (144.16) and multiply by 1.50 = 216.24 or 216

(im not 100% on any of this btw)
