Let's call the two numbers x and y. We can write a system of equations to describe the situation:
5x = 8y
x - y = 150
Let's solve the first equation for x:
x = 8y/5
Now we can use substitution to solve the system by plugging 8y/5 in for x in the second equation:
(8y/5) - y = 150
Simplify:
3y/5 = 150
3y = 750
y = 250
If y = 250, then x is:
x = 8(250)/5 = 400
The answer is 250 and 400.
Answer:
68
Step-by-step explanation:
The lines on both sides of the number represent absolute value. Absolute value takes any number and turns it positive no matter what.
|-68| → 68
Best of Luck!
If I’m not mistaken, the answer is C.
Answer:
600 cm^2
Step-by-step explanation:
The side length of one of the faces is 10 cm
The length of a side is generally noted as s.
In this problem s = 10
Area of a cube face = s^2
So the area of one face of a cube = s^2 = 10^2 = 10*10 = 100
There are 6 faces on a cube.
Area = 6 * 100 = 600
Answer:
D) 7.7 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
L/W=11cm/10cm=x/7cm
cross multiply to find x
10x=77
divide 10 by both sides
x=7.7
