Answer:

24 and 30

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of two numbers is 54. Let's use the variables x and y to represent theses numbers:

x + y = 54

The smaller number is 6 less than the bigger one. Let's say that x is the smaller number and y is the bigger number:

y - 6 = x

Now we know that x is equivalent to y - 6. So, let's replace x with y - 6 in the original equation:

x + y = 54

y - 6 + y = 54

Combine like terms:

2y - 6 = 54

Now we can solve for y:

2y - 6 = 54

Add 6 to both sides of the equation to isolate the 2y:

2y = 60

Divide both sides by 2 to find the value of y:

y = 30

Now that we know the value of y, we can solve for x:

y - 6 = x

30 - 6 = x

24 = x

The value of the two numbers is 24 and 30.

Find the equation of the line with slope 7 which goes through the point (-2,-9).
nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

y=7x+5

Step-by-step explanation:

y-y1=m(x-x1)

y-(-9)=7(x-(-2))

y+9=7(x+2)

y+9=7x+14

y=7x+14-9

y=7x+5

bearhunter [10]

Step-by-step explanation:

1. You already got the first step, where D is the midpoint of AC and AB is congruent to BC, since it's given.

2. AD will be congruent to DC, via the definition of a midpoint (a midpoint is the middle point of a line segment, and it splits the segment into two congruent parts)

3. BD is equal to BD, via reflexive property. ( It's a shared side between the two triangles)

4. that means that ΔADB ≅ΔCDB via SSS rule.

5. ∠ABD ≅∠CDB by CPCTC (corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent)

Hope this helps! :)
