Answer:

You can try to write two equation from the question

Call x a number and y the other.

The sum of them is 44: x + y = 44

The difference (substract) is 2: x - y = 2

System:

x+y=44

x-y = 2

You can just sum both equations, as the y disappear:

2x = 46

x =46/ 2 = 23

We replace in the equation:

23 - y = 2

y = 21

And we know the numbers are 21 and 23

This Stem-and-Leaf Plot shows the amount of rainfall received in centimeters in each month. What is the median of this data set?
WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

55.5 B

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following points of data

48, 49, 50, 51, 54, 55, 56, 58, 60, 62, 63, 63

The median is the data point in the middle (when listed in order)

If we find the middle number we'll see that it's between 55 and 56. When this is the case you find the average of  the two numbers (add them and divide by 2)

(55+56)/2=55.5

Virty [35]

Answer:

The width is 10 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter = 2(Length + Breadth)

Length(L) = 3B + 5

Perimeter = 70

70 = 2(3B + 5)

70 = 6B + 10

70 - 10 = 6B

60 = 6B

60/6 = B

B = 10 inches

dsp73

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First you need to set up the equation 2/3+1/4/1/2, and we know that there is a stratgey for dividing fractions as well. But first, we need to find the least common fator for 2/3 and 1/4 which is twelve which would be 8/12+3/12 which is 11/12 and 11/12 dividing by 1/2 is 22/12 since all you need to do is do the keep change flip method which would give you an answer of 1 10/12 or 1 5/6
