Answer:

The numbers are 11 and 49.

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>x = 5y - 6 </em> This is just the first sentence written as an equation.

<em>x + y = 60</em> This is just the second sentence written as an equation.

<em>5y - 6 + y = 60</em> Substitute x for what you know it is equal to

<em>6y - 6 = 60</em> Collect like terms

<em>6y = 66</em> Add 6 to each side

<em>y = 11</em> Divide each side by 6

<em>x = 5 × 11 - 6 </em> Substitute y for what you know it is

<em>x = 55 - 6</em> Simplify by working out 5 × 11 = 55

<em>x = 49</em> Subtract 6 from 55 to get 49

What is the remainder of (3x^4+2x^3-x^2+2x-14)/ (x+2)
Allisa [31]

Hi,

I assume the forward slash meant it as a fraction VS it being a division symbol. To answer your question, the remainder is 10.

Hope this helps.

irina [24]

The total area of a circle is pi * radius^2

The total area of the circle is pi x 5^2 = 25pi sq. cm.

2/5 of this is success, so the answer is 2/5 * 25pi = 10 pi sq. cm.
