Answer:
a or c
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x is the first no. then the other no. will obviously be (x+1)
according to question,
(x+1)²- x²= 15
x² +2x+1 - x² = 15 ( using (a+b)²= a²+ b² + 2ab )
2x + 1 = 15
2x = 14
x = 7
hence numbers are x = 7 and x +1 = 7+1 = 8
also 8²-7² = 64-49 = 15
hence the numbers are 7 and 8
hope it helped
Answer:
9.6 = BC
Step-by-step explanation:
Since this is a right triangle, we can use trig functions
tan theta = opposite/ adjacent
tan 58 = BC / 6
Multiply each side by 6
6 tan 58 = BC
9.602007174 =BC
Round to the nearest tenth
9.6 = BC
2.5 is in decimal form already.
You can solve this via algebra, lets say the numbers are x and y.
x + y = 43 and x - y = 19
You can re-arrange one of the equations to get
x = 43 - y Then substitute this into the other equation, so instead of x you put this:
(43 - y) - y = 19
43 - 2y = 19
-2y = 19 - 43
-2y = -24
-y = -12
so y = 12
then you can do 43 - 12 = 31 to get both of the numbers.
so the numbers are 31 and 12
