Answer:
Original number = 38
Step-by-step explanation:
10*x + y
x = y - 5
10y + x = 2 (10x + y) + 7
10y + y - 5 = 2(10(y - 5) + y) + 7
11y - 5 = 2(10y - 50 + y ) + 7
11y - 5 = 2(11y - 50) + 7
11y - 5 = 22y - 100 + 7
11y - 5 = 22y - 93
11y + 88 = 22y
88 = 11y
y = 8
x = y - 5
x = 8 - 5
x = 3
So the original number is 38. Does that work?
3 is 5 less than 8.
83 = 2*38 + 7
83 = 76 + 7
83 = 83. Yes it works.
Answer: 54:150
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio of bass to catfish in a pond can be written as 54:150
Since CAB is similar to EFD, then the length of DE would be as follows: 28.
We must follow order of operations rules (PEMDAS) here: exponentiation first, followed by multiplication and division, followed by addition and subtraction.
Thus, -2^2-3(-2)+1 becomes:
-[4] + 6 + 1 = 2 + 1 = 3 (answer)
