Answer:
x = 41 , y = 139
Step-by-step explanation:
x and 41° are alternate exterior angles and are congruent , so
x = 41
x and y are a linear pair and sum to 180° , that is
x + y = 180
41 + y = 180 ( subtract 41 from both sides )
y = 139
The next 5 terms are 165, 200, 235, 270, 305
The exponent is the 3 over the x
Answer:
22 and 7
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x and y be the two numbers we are looking for:
The statement “their sum is 29” means x + y = 29
The statement “their difference is 15” means x - y = 15
we get this system:
x + y = 29 (1)
x - y = 15 (2)
Let’s solve it :
(1) + (2) ⇒ x + y + x - y = 29 + 15 ⇒ 2x = 44 ⇒ x = 44/2 = 22
Now we replace x by 22 in equation (1) :
22 + y = 29 ⇒ y = 29 - 22 = 7
