Hello there!
The sum of two numbers (x + y) is 8 (=8).
Their product (x * y) is 15 (=15).
x + y = 8
x * y = 15
First, we know that the two number must be positive and under 8, as the product is positive.
Let's list out some numbers that are from 1 to 8 that sum up to 8;
1 + 7
2 + 6
3 + 5
4 + 4
Now, we need to multiply the two numbers that add up to 8, and see which makes a product of 15.
1 * 7 = 7, this does not work.
2 * 6 = 12, this does not work.
3 * 5 = 15, this works!
4 * 4 = 16, this does not work.
Since we are looking for the larger number in our pairs, let's pick the largest one out of the correct pair, which is 5.
The largest number is 5.
I hope this helps!
1 7/6 divided by 1 3/5 = 5/5 as a reduced fraction!
Answer:
x = -64
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Write out equation
9 - 3/4x = 57
Step 2: Subtract 9 on both sides
-3/4x = 48
Step 3: Multiply both sides by -4/3
x = -64
Answer:
7.0 mi
Step-by-step explanation:
see the attached figure to better understand the problem
step 1
Find the measure of angle C
Remember that the sum of the interior angles in any triangle must be equal to 180 degrees
so
substitute the given values
step 2
Find the measure of a
Applying the law of sines
