Answer:     17 and 24

Step-by-step explanation:

72 divided by 3 equals 24. which would also mean that 24 times 3 is 72. after you have the greater number (which is 24), all you have to do is subtract 7 which is 17.

Answer:

24 and 17

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the Greater number be x

3x = 72

x = 24

24-7 = other number (17)

Hence the numbers are 17 and 24

Hope this helps!

Vertex of x^2-10x+30
Shtirlitz [24]

The easiest way to find the vertex is to convert this standard form equation into vertex form, which is y = a(x - h)^2 + k.

Firstly, put x^2 - 10x into parentheses: y = (x^2 - 10x) + 30

Next, we want to make what's inside the parentheses a perfect square. To do that, we need to divide the x coefficient by 2 and square it. In this case, the result is 25. Add 25 inside the parentheses and subtract 25 outside of the parentheses: y = (x^2 - 10x + 25) + 30 - 25

Next, factor what's inside the parentheses and combine like terms outside of the parentheses, and your vertex form is: y = (x - 5)^2 + 5.

Now going back to the formula of the vertex form, y = a(x - h)^2 + k, the vertex is (h,k). Using our vertex equation, we can see that the vertex is (5,5).

What is the equation, in point slope form, of the line
melamori03 [73]

Answer:

y=3/2x+11/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello! Sorry  I just saw this

Anyways, let's continue

first, we need to find the equation of the line with the one that is (-2,-4) and (2,2)

first, we need to find the slope

the equation for slope is y2-y1/x2-x1

so let's label the points

x1=-2

y1=-4

x2=2

y2=2

now plug it in

2-(-4)/2-(-2)=6/4=3/2

now, let's turn it into a line

the point-slope form is y-y1=m(x-x1) (m=slope)

now, plug it in

y-(-4)=3/2(x-(-2))

simplify to

y+4=3/2(x+2)

turn into y=mx+b format

y+4=3/2x+3

subtract 4 on both sides

y=3/2x-1

Now for the line that is parallel.

Parallel lines have the same slopes, so you automatically know that the new line will be y=3/2x+b

To make sure (-3,1) is a solution to the point, put 1 as y and -3 as x

1=3/2(-3)+b

1=-9/2+b

add 9/2 on both sides

b=11/2 or 5.5

now, put it into the equation

y=3/2x+11/2

Hope this helps!

Reil [10]

Answer:

0.66

Step-by-step explanation:

24.95 x 25%=6.23

24.94 - 6.23 = 18.72

25.80 x 30% = 7.74

25.80 - 7.74 = 18.06

18.72 -18 .06 = 0.66

4. What is the slope of the line that passes<br> through the points (-6, -30) and (12, 24)?
andriy [413]
Slope: (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
(24-(-30))/(12-(-6)) = (24+30)/(12+6)
(54)/(18) = 3
The slope is 3
