  20, 36

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x and y represent the smaller and larger numbers, respectively. The given relations let us write two equations:

  x + y = 56 . . . . . . the sum of the two numbers is 56

  2x -y/2 = 22 . . . . twice the smaller exceeds half the larger by 22

We can solve this by multiplying the second equation by 2 and adding the first.

  2(2x -y/2) +(x +y) = 2(22) +56

  5x = 100 . . . . . . simplify

  x = 20

  y = 56 -20 = 36

The two numbers are 20 and 36.

PLEASE HELP!!! I don't understand it
Len [333]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

This is exponential decay; the height of the ball is decreasing exponentially with each successive drop.  It's not going down at a steady rate.  If it was, this would be linear.  But gravity doesn't work on things that way.  If the ball was thrown up into the air, it would be parabolic; if the ball is dropped, the bounces are exponentially dropping in height.  The form of this equation is

y=a(b)^x, or in our case:

A(n)=a(b)^{n-1}, where

a is the initial height of the ball and

b is the decimal amount the bounce decreases each time.  For us:

a = 1.5 and

b = .74

Filling in,

A(n)=1.5(.74)^{n-1}

If ww want the height of the 6th bounce, n = 6.  Filling that into the equation we already wrote for our model:

A(6)=1.5(.74)^{6-1} which of course simplifies to

A(6)=1.5(.74)^5 which simplifies to

A(6)=1.5(.22190066)

So the height of the ball is that product.

A(6) = .33 cm

A is your answer

Need help with # 7 and #8!

7) BC + CD = BD

(4x - 29) + (5x-9) = 7x -10
9x - 38 = 7x - 10 (when you transpose you change the sign)
9x - 7x = - 10 + 38
2x = 28
x = 14

8) BD = BC

5x - 26 = 2x + 1
5x - 2x = 1 +26
3x = 27
x = 9
if x = 9, then BC = 2x + 1 = 2(9) + 1 = 19
or 
AB = AC - BC
AB = 43 - 19
AB = 24

Step-by-step explanation:

Comment

If you do not have a graphing calculator the best thing to use is Desmos. Desmos is free -- anyone can use it and and the graphs can be used here on Brainly.  I've downloaded the graph for you.

There are a couple of things you should notice.

The most downward point is (-5,-3)

The largest root is x =   -2

The smallest root is x = - 8

Notice the roots are the opposite of what you are given. You will eventually learn how to do all of these things.
