Let x represent the larger number.
Let y represent the smaller number.
x-y=4 Given
3x=5y-2 Given
Now we can just substitute; let x=4+y
Substitute 4+y for x in the second equation:
3(4+y)=5y-2
12+3y=5y-2
-2y=-14
y=7
Substitute back (into BOTH equations to double check work).
x, the larger number, is 11
Answer:
m∠XAZ = 40°
Step-by-step explanation:
Since ∠YAU, ∠YAZ and ∠XAZ are the angles based at a point on a straight line, and the sum of the all angles on a line is 180°.
Therefore, m∠YAU + m∠YAZ + m∠XAZ = 180°
50° + 90° + m∠XAZ = 180°
m∠XAZ = 180° - 140°
= 40°
Therefore, measure of angle XAZ is 40°.
C is the best one I'm pretty sure it makes the most sense
Answer:
My guess would be
C. multiplicative identity property
The answer to the first part is 172 plants per row with a remainder of 3 plants
The answer to the second part is, Martin knows that 7 goes into 700 100 times, 7 goes into 490 70 times, and 7 goes into 17 twice with a remainder of 3. He then adds 100 70 and 2 together to get 172 with a remainder of 3.
