William is thinking of 2 numbers. The larger number is four less than two times the smaller

Mathematics
1 answer:
klasskru [66]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The numbers are 36 and 68.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the smaller number be x.

"The larger number is four less than two times the smaller

number."

The larger number is

2x - 4

The sum of the numbers is x + 2x - 4, or 3x - 4.

"The sum of the numbers is 104."

3x - 4 = 104

3x = 108

x = 36

The smaller number is 36.

The larger number is 2x - 4, or

2x - 4 = 2(36) - 4 = 72 - 4 = 68

The larger number is 68.

Answer: The numbers are 36 and 68.

Can you please help me graph the function using intercepts
dexar [7]

See explanation below

Explanation:

The equation: 4x + 3y = -12

To plot the graph using the intercept, we need to find the y and x intercept

To get the y intercept, we replace x with 0

4(0) + 3y = -12

0 + 3y = -12

3y = -12

divide both sides by 3:

3y/3 = -12/3

y = -4

To get the x intercept, we will replace y with 0

4x + 3(0) = -12

4x + 0 = -12

4x = -12

divide both sides by 4:

4x/4 = -12/4

x = -3

Plotting the x and y intercept on the graph:

The west room of the White House has a perimeter of 180 feet. If the width is 50 feet, what is the length of the West room?
NeTakaya

Answer:

l = 40

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Perimeter comes from P = 2l + 2w so 180 = 2l + 2(50)

180 = 2l + 100

180-100 = 2l

80 = 2l

so l = 40

Solve the following exponential equations.<br> 2(4^x )+ 4^(x+1 )= 342
Cloud [144]

Answer:

  x ≈ 2.91644500708

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation can be simplified to ...

  2(4^x) +4(4^x) = 342

  6(4^x) = 342

  4^x = 57

Taking logarithms, we get ...

  x = log₄(57) = log(57)/log(4)

  x ≈ 2.91644500708
