Answer:
The larger number is 37. This makes the smaller number 56 - 37, which is 19.
Step-by-step explanation:
The first step is to pick variables for the two numbers. Lets call the smaller number x and the larger number y.
Since the sum of the two numbers is 56, this means that x + y = 56. Let's call this equation 1 and save it for later.
The next sentence says:
The smaller number is 18 less than the larger number. So, 18 less than the larger number would be y - 18. So, the smaller number must be equal to this, so
x = y - 18
Replace the x in equation 1 with y - 18
x + y = 56
(y-18) + y = 56 (replace x with y-18)
2y - 18 = 56 (add the y's)
2y = 74 (add 18 to both sides)
y = 37 (divide both sides by 2)
So, the larger number is 37. This makes the smaller number 56 - 37, which is 19.
Hope this helps!! :)
Answer:
miles.
Step-by-step explanation:
Please consider the complete question.
Bay View Bike Path is 7/8 miles. Keisha is riding her bike on Bay View bike path. Keisha's bike got a flat tire 2/3 of the way down the oath and she had to stop. How far did Keisha ride?
To find the distance covered by Keisha while riding the bike, we need to find 2/3 of 7/8 miles.
Therefore, Keisha ride miles.
Answer:
65 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
There are two simultaneous equations
. Remeber that v=d/t, 1hour = 60 minutes.
1. 40 = (d+15)/(t+0.5)
2. 50 = d/t
solving: d= 25 miles and t=0.5 hours.
The distance traveled is:
D=d+d+15
D=65 miles

Polynomial Roots Calculator :
2.1 Find roots (zeroes) of : F(a) = 7a3-7a+1
Polynomial Roots Calculator is a set of methods aimed at finding values of a for which F(a)=0
Rational Roots Test is one of the above mentioned tools. It would only find Rational Roots that is numbers a which can be expressed as the quotient of two integers
The Rational Root Theorem states that if a polynomial zeroes for a rational number P/Q then P is a factor of the Trailing Constant and Q is a factor of the Leading Coefficient
In this case, the Leading Coefficient is 7 and the Trailing Constant is 1.
The factor(s) are:
of the Leading Coefficient : 1,7
of the Trailing Constant : 1
Let us test ....
P Q P/Q F(P/Q) Divisor
-1 1 -1.00 1.00
-1 7 -0.14 1.98
1 1 1.00 1.00
1 7 0.14 0.02
Polynomial Roots Calculator found no rational roots
Final result :
7a3 - 7a + 1
