Let,
the bigger number be "x"
the smaller number be "y"
Now, according to the question,
x + y = 24...........equation (1).............because the sum of numbers is 24
x - y = 15 .............equation (2)..................because their difference is 15
Taking equation (2),
x - y = 15
x = 15 + y ....................equation (3)
Now, Taking equation (1)
x + y = 24
(Substituting the value of "x" form equation (3) we get)
15 + y + y = 24
(Subtracting 15 on both sides, we get)
y + y = 24 - 15
2y = 9
y = 9 / 2
y = 4.5
Now,
Taking equation (3)
x = 15 + y
(Substituting the value of y , we get)
x = 15 + 4.5
x = 19.5
So, the two numbers are 19.5 and 4.5
Answer: 
Step-by-step explanation:
You must draw a right triangle as the one attached, where "x" is the lenght in feet of the ramp.
You need to use the following Trigonometric Identity:
In this case you can identify that:
Now you must substitute these values into :
Finally, you must solve for "x" in order to find its value.
This is:
6/25.2
Multiply both sides by 5 so 25.2 is a whole number:
30/126
and then simplify by dividing by 6:
5/21 which is equal to 0.2381.

Let’s call the speed of the slower car S, then the speed of the other is S+10mph.
At 5pm they have been travelling for 3 hours. The slower car travels a distance 3S and the faster one 3(S+10).
But the two distances must add up to 240 miles so 3S+3(S+10)=240, 3S+3S+30=240, 6S=210, S=35 mph. The faster car’s speed is 45mph. We can see that 3S is the same distance as 3x, so x=S=35 mph, and the distance the faster car travels is 3×45=135 miles.
