Answer: Jack has 33 stamps and Dylan has 13 stamps .

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of stamps Jack has and the number of stamps Dylan y.

x-y=20----------------(1)\\\\ x+y=46-----------------(2)

Adding equation (1) and (2), we get

2x=66\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=\dfrac{66}{2}=33

From (1), we have

33-y=20\\\\\Rightarrow\ y=33-20=13

Hence, Jack has 33 stamps and Dylan has 13 stamps .

Answer:

The number of Jack's stamps is 33 and Dylan's stamps is 13

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x -----> the number of Jack's stamps

y -----> the number of Dylan's stamps

we know that

x+y=46 ----> equation A

x=y+20 -----> equation B

Solve by substitution

substitute equation B in equation A and solve for y

(y+20)+y=46

2y=46-20

2y=26

y=13 stamps

Fond the value of x

x=y+20 -----> x=13+20=33 stamps

therefore

The number of Jack's stamps is 33 and Dylan's stamps is 13

Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

A  =  $56,740

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the Compound Amount formula A = P(1 + r)^t.  Substitute 0.05 for r and $40,000 for P:

A = $40,000(1 + 0.05)^6

A  =  $56,740.26, or, rounded off to the nearest dollar,

Find the distance between the two points (-10,3) and (0,27)​
crimeas [40]

Answer:

26 units

Step-by-step explanation:

\boxed{distance \: between \: 2 \: points =  \sqrt{ {(x1 - x2)}^{2} +  {(y1 - y2)}^{2}  } }

Using the formula above,

distance between (-10, 3) and (0, 27)

=  \sqrt{ {( - 10 - 0)}^{2}  +  {(3 - 27)}^{2} }

=  \sqrt{ {10}^{2}  + ( - 24) {}^{2} }

=  \sqrt{100 + 576}

=  \sqrt{676}

= 26 units
