Answer:
it has infinitely many solutions
The GCF would be 14a, because 14a x 1 = 14a, and 14a x 2b = 28ab.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the numbers are 4x and 7x. According to the question if each number is increased by 20, the ratio becomes 7 : 9.
Then,
( 4x + 20 ) : ( 7x + 20 ) = 7 : 9
9( 4x + 20 ) = 7( 7x + 20 )
9( 4x ) + 9( 20 ) = 7( 7x ) + 7( 20 )
9( 20 ) - 7( 20 ) = 7( 7x ) - 9( 4x )
2( 20 ) = 49x - 36x
40 = 13 x
40 / 13 = x
Therefore, number are :–
4 x = 4( 40 / 13 ) = 160 / 13
7 x = 7( 40 / 13 ) = 280 / 13
Answer:
(p,r) = (1/3, 2/9)
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we want to solve a system of equations
We can rewrite the second equation by dividing through by 2
So we have;
4p + 3r = 2
and
5p - 3r = 1
Add both equations:
9p = 3
p = 3/9
p = 1/3
Recall ;
5p - 3r = 1
3r = 5p - 1
Substitute the value or p here
3r = 5(1/3)-1
3r = 5/3 - 1
3r = 2/3
r = 2/9
So we have the solution set as;
(p,r) = (1/3 , 2/9)
Sqrt55. Use the pythagorean theorem; 3^2 + x^2 = 8^2
