The answer should be false
Answer:
x= -13
y= -28
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the two numbers, write a system of equations with x as one number and y as another:
x-y=15
5x=2y-9
Use substitution to substitute one equation into another. Then solve for the variable.
x=15+y into 5x=2y-9
becomes
5(15+y) = 2y-9
75+5y = 2y- 9
75+3y= -9
3y = -84
y= -28
To find x, substitute y= -28 into one equation.
x - (-28) = 15
x+28 =15
x = 15-28
x=-13
Its a square pool and its perimeter is 100 yards.
We know that a square has 4 sides with the same length so we can give a square perimeter by the sum of their 4 sides
Lets call the side "l" and since we have 4 of them we need to sum it 4 times
l + l + l + l = perimeter
4l = perimeter
We know the perimeter
4l = 100
Divide both sides by 4
4l/4 = 100/4
l = 25
So the side length is equal to 25 yards
Answer:
Hi there!
Your answer is:
Small number = 20
Larger number = 77
Step-by-step explanation:
larger= 4s-3
smaller = s
s+ 4s-3 = 97
5s-3 = 97
+3
5s = 100
/5
s= 20
large number = 4(20)-3
80-3
larger = 77
Double check work!
20+77= 97✓
Hope this helps!
