Answer:

24 and 38

Step-by-step explanation:

If we assign the variables x and y to the two numbers we can set up two equations,

x+y = 62

x = y + 14

Substituting the second equation into the first,

(y+14)+y = 62

2y + 14 = 62

subtract 14 on both sides

2y = 48

divideboth sides by 2

y = 24

If y = 24, then x = 38 because x is 14 more than y.

at an amusement park a person spends $30 on admission and food and then goes on r number of rides that cost $2 each
stepladder [879]
The question is find the equation, in the function and standard notations, that represent the amount spent in the range of 0 to 5 rides.

Constant cost: $30
Independent variable, number of rides: r
Variable cost: $2r

Total spend, s(r): 30 + 2r

Function: s(r) = 30 + 2r, for 0 ≤r ≤ 5  ----- this is the function notation

Standard form: s(r) is the dependent variable = s

s = 30 + 2r => s - 2r = 30 =>

s + (-2)r = 30, for 0 ≤ r ≤ 5 ------ this is the standard form

Veseljchak [2.6K]

Kloe can make 4 flower arrangement

The number of flowers in each flower arrangement is 6 sun flowers, 4 roses and 12 white carnations.

The number of flower arrangements can be calculated as follows;

The first step is to calculate the HCF between the three numbers

24= 6 × 4

16= 4 × 4

48= 12 × 4

The HCF is 4

Hence the number of flower arrangement is 4  and the number of flowers in each flower arrangement is 6 sun flowers, 4 roses and 12 white carnations
