Let smaller number is x
Greater number =2x+15
According to the question
Greater number + smaller number =90
2x+15+x=90
3x=75
x=25
And 2x+15=65
Hence, numbers are 25 and 65
Answer:
x=2 and y=5
Step-by-step explanation:
Steps:
I will solve your system by substitution.
x=y−3;2x+y=9
Step: Solve x = y − 3 for x:
Step: Substitute y − 3 for x in 2x + y = 9:
2x+y=9
2(y−3)+y=9
3y−6=9(Simplify both sides of the equation)
3y−6+6=9+6(Add 6 to both sides)
3y=15
3y/3=15/3 (Divide both sides by 3)
y=5
Step: Substitute 5 for y in x = y − 3 :
x=y−3
x=5−3
x=2(Simplify both sides of the equation)
Answer:
x=2 and y=5
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
1) Change the mixed fractions into improper fractions:
2) Multiply the first fraction by 2/2 and the second fraction by 5/5 in order to create common factors on the denominator (You can do this because you are essentially multiplying by one, for example 2/2 = 1):
3) Simplify the numerator(top part) while keeping the denominator(bottom part) the same:
That sucks they should've worked harder
So to add fractions they need to have a common denominator, which in this case is 24. then multiply 1 by 4 and 5 by 3 because whatever you multiply the denominator by you need to do the same to the numerator, which will get you 4/24+15/24 then you add across the numerators and you get 19/24
