9514 1404 393

Answer:

  6, 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent one of the numbers. Then the other number is 15-x (because their sum is 15). The relation between the numbers is ...

  2x -3 = 15 -x . . . . . three less than twice one number is the other number

  3x = 18 . . . . . . add 3+x

  x = 6 . . . . . . divide by 3

  15-x = 9 . . . . find the other number

The two numbers are 6 and 9.

If A= (7,9) and B= (3,12) what is the length of AB?
MissTica
The length can be found using the Pythagorean Theorem...

c^2=a^2+b^2 and in this case:

d^2=(dx^2)+(dy^2)

d^2=(3-7)^2+(12-9)^2

d^2=-4^2+3^2

d^2=16+9

d^2=25

d=5 

So the length of AB=5 units.
