Hi there!
To solve this problem, we need to set up two equations and use the system of equations to solve.
Let x be the first number.
Let y be the second number.
(x + y) ÷ 2 = 34
x = 3y
Now, we can use substitution to solve.
(3y + y) ÷ 2 = 34
4y ÷ 2 = 34
2y = 34
y = 17
Now, we plug the value of y in the equation to solve for x.
x = 3*17
x = 51
Hope this helps!
Answer:
x = 5/39
, y = 539/39
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve the following system:
{y - 2.5 x = 13.5
12.25 x - y = -12.25
In the first equation, look to solve for y:
{y - 2.5 x = 13.5
12.25 x - y = -12.25
y - 2.5 x = y - (5 x)/2 and 13.5 = 27/2:
y - (5 x)/2 = 27/2
Add (5 x)/2 to both sides:
{y = 1/2 (5 x + 27)
12.25 x - y = -12.25
Substitute y = 1/2 (5 x + 27) into the second equation:
{y = 1/2 (5 x + 27)
1/2 (-5 x - 27) + 12.25 x = -12.25
(-5 x - 27)/2 + 12.25 x = 12.25 x + (-(5 x)/2 - 27/2) = 9.75 x - 27/2:
{y = 1/2 (5 x + 27)
9.75 x - 27/2 = -12.25
In the second equation, look to solve for x:
{y = 1/2 (5 x + 27)
9.75 x - 27/2 = -12.25
9.75 x - 27/2 = (39 x)/4 - 27/2 and -12.25 = -49/4:
(39 x)/4 - 27/2 = -49/4
Add 27/2 to both sides:
{y = 1/2 (5 x + 27)
(39 x)/4 = 5/4
Multiply both sides by 4/39:
{y = 1/2 (5 x + 27)
x = 5/39
Substitute x = 5/39 into the first equation:
{y = 539/39
x = 5/39

Answer: {x = 5/39
, y = 539/39
Answer:
let first equation be y=x^2-14x+23
second equation be y=-3x+5
now substitute the vale of y in equation second
y=-3x+5
x^2-14x+23=-3x+5
x^2-14x+3x=5-23
x^2-11x=-18
x^2-11x+18=0
x^2-(9+2)x+18=0
x^2-9x-2x+18=0
x(x-9)-2(x-9)=0
(x-2)(x-9)=0
either x-2=0 Or, x-9=0
x-2=0
x=0+2
x=2
x-9=0
x=0+9
x=9
therefore x=2,9

Answer:
option B
6
Step-by-step explanation:
Given in the diagram two triangles ABC and DEF,
length of the side AB = 2
length of the side DE = 12
Scale factor of triangle ABC to triangle DEF, is the scale factor of side AB to DE
AB : DE
2 : 12
1 : 12/2
1 : 6
this means triangle DEF is 6 times larger than triangle ABC
or
triangle ABC is 1/6 of triangle DEF
