Find the two numbers. Algebra -> Customizable Word Problem Solvers -> Numbers -> SOLUTION: The difference of two positive numbers is 8. The larger is twice the smaller decreased by 7.
You only need to know one side, you can use , tan, sin, or cos of the angles to find the other 2 sides.
There are many ways to solve simultaneous linear equations. One of my favorite for finding integer solutions is graphing. The attached graph shows the solution to be ...
... (x, y) = (4, 7)
_____
You can also use Cramer's Rule, or the Vedic math variation of it, which tells you the solution to

is given by

Here, that means
... x = (9·67-5·75)/(9·8-5·3) = 228/57 = 4
... y = (75·8-67·3)/57 = 399/57 = 7
_____
A (graphing) calculator greatly facilitates either of these approaches.
Answer:
The frequency table is shown below.
Step-by-step explanation:
(i) Half of the tuna sandwich were on white bread = 21
On brown bread, tuna = 42 - 21 = 21
(ii) 25% of the ham sandwiches sold were on brown bread.
= 25% (32) = 8
On white bread, 32 - 8 = 24
Frequency table:
Tuna Cheese Ham Total
Brown 21 11 8 40
White 21 15 24 60
Total 42 26 32 100
Answer:
14.52 seconds.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have been given that the height of the rocket, y in feet, is related to the time after launch, x in seconds, by the given equation
. We are asked to find the time, when the rocket will hit the ground.
We know that the rocket will hit the ground, when height will be 0. So to find the time when rocket will hit the ground, we will substitute
in our given equation as:

Let us solve for x using quadratic formula.








Upon rounding to nearest 100th of second, we will get:

Since time cannot be negative, therefore, the rocket will hit the ground after 14.52 seconds.
