Answer:

The numbers are 2 and 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

The smaller number would have been 1 less than the bigger number so that if for example the smaller number is 1 and the bigger number is 2, their difference would have been 1-2 = -1

5 is an odd number so if it were to be divided into two integers, one would be more than the other, namely 2 and 3.

If you double-check their difference:

2-3 = -1

Thus, the two numbers are 2 and 3.

Ann [662]

Answer:

Information is missing on the price of electricity.

Step-by-step explanation:

There is information missing on the cost of the electricity, per kwh.  b(x) = ????.

If it is $0.20/kwh, then we would have:

b(x) = $0.20x

b(800) = $0.20*(800)

b(800) = $160

It depends on the price.

What value for c will make the expression a perfect square trinomial? x2 – 7x + c
zysi [14]
I assume the first part of that equation is x^2. -7/2= 3.5 ; 3.5^2=12.25 sooo it should end up as x^2-7x + 12.25. but I might be wrong.

How many liters of water should be added to 18 liters of a 14% bleach solution so that the resulting solution contains only 10%
sergeinik [125]

Answer:

7.2 liters of water must be added to create a 10% bleach solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

18 liters times 14%, or 18 * 0.14, is 2.52. If we want bleach to be 10% of our solution, we can just multiply this number by 10 because 10% times 10 is 100%!! 2.52 * 10 is 25.2. To find how many liters of water you need to add you just find the difference. To do this you subtract your original from your new solution, so 25.2 - 18 = 7.2 liters of water need to be added.
