Answer:

<u>28.5 and 32.5</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>create an equation to solve:</em>

x + (x+4) =61

2x + 4 = 61 combine like terms

2x = 57 subtract 4 from both sides

x = 28.5 divide 2 from both sides

28.5 is the smaller number

the larger number is 4 more so:

28.5 + 4 = 32.5

32.5 is the larger number

check your work:

28.5 + 32.5 = 61

8-2|4-5y|=4<br><br> | | stands for absolute value

Contact [7]

Answer:

y = (2/5) OR y = (6/5)

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step is isolating the expression within the absolute value bars. The first thing we can do is subtract both sides by 8. If we do that, we get -2|4-5y| = -4. Now, to completely isolate the absolute value, we would have to divide by -2. This yields |4 - 5y| = 2. Finally, we can remove the absolute value bars. However, to do this, we need to first understand what an absolute value bar does to an equation. Lets say that |x| = 2. Absolute value describes the DISTANCE of some quantity from 0 (on the number line). Therefore, x (which is inside the absolute value bars) can be either positive or negative 2 (they are BOTH two units away from 0). Similarly, in this case, (4 - 5y) can either be 2 or -2 (because the absolute value of both is 2). Now we have two possible solutions to solve for:

4 - 5y = 2 OR 4 - 5y = -2

5y = 2 OR 5y = 6

y = (2/5) OR y = (6/5)

If we plug both of these answers back into the equation we can see that they both check out.

John is making baked goods for a party. He can either make muffins or bread, and he can use blueberries, bananas, apples, or cho

Margarita [4]

The total number of possible choices that John had for making baked goods for the party is 8.

<h3>What is Combination?</h3>

The combination helps us to know the number of ways an object can be arranged without a particular manner. A combination is denoted by 'C'.

$^nC_r = \dfrac{n!}{r!(n-r)!}$

where,

n is the number of choices available,

r is the choices to be made.

We know that the number of choices with John for his baked goods is only two which are muffins or bread, therefore, the choices of the baked good can be written as $^2C_1$ .

Also, the number of choices with John for flavors is four which are blueberries, bananas, apples, or chocolate chips, therefore, the choices of the flavor can be written as $^4C_1$ .
