Answer:

x = 18 y = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

let the first number be x

let the second number be y

x = y + 8..... equation 1

2x + y = 46.... equation 2

x is the larger number

y is the smaller number.

Rearrange the equation and add equation 1 to equation 2.

x - y = 8

+ 2x + y = 46

-------------------

3x + 0 = 54

3x = 54

divide both sides by 3

x = 54/3

x = 18

Substitute x = 18 into equation 1

x = y + 8

18 = y + 8

collect like terms

y = 18-8

y = 10

David kicks a soccer ball off the ground and in the air, with an initial velocity of 35 feet per second. Using the formula H(t)
sesenic [268]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The function for this problem is: h(t) = -16(t)^2 + vt + s h= the height t= time v= velocity s= starting height With the information given, we know that the starting height is 0, since it was from the ground, and the velocity of the ball is 35 feet per second. Inserting the these information into the equation, we get: h(t) = -16(t)^2 + 35t Now the question asks to find the maximum height. It can be done by using a grapher to graph the maximum of the parabola. It could also be done by finding the vertex, which would be the maximum, of the graph by using x= -b/(2a), where b is equal to 35 and a is equal to -16. We get x=35/32, the x-value of where the vertex lies. You can use this value as the t-value in the previous equation to find the h-value of the vertex. When you do, you get h= 19.1 feet, or answer D.

in one month a store had $1,222 in sales but expenses were $2,345. how much money did the store lose in that month?
SIZIF [17.4K]

Profit is the difference between revenue (sales) and expenses.

... profit = $1,222 - 2,345 = -$1,123

When profit is negative, it is called a <em>loss</em>.

The store lost $1,123 that month.

Answer:

  D.  y = 1.5x +5

Step-by-step explanation:

The offered answer choices are equations in slope-intercept form. The constant in the equation is the y-intercept, the value of distance when time is zero.

   y = mx +b . . . . m is slope; b is y-intercept

__

The table tells you that the distance value is 5 when the time value is 0. In the equation, that means ...

  b = 5

Only one answer choice matches:

  y = 1.5x +5
