Answer:

The sum of two numbers is 24. The difference is 15. What are the two numbers?

tatiyna

The numbers are "x" and "y",
we suggest this system of equations.
x+y=24
x-y=15
solve by reduction method.
x+y=24
x-y=15
-----------------
2x=39 ⇒x=39/2=19.5

x+y=24
-(x-y=15)
-------------------
2y=9 ⇒y=9/2=4.5

The numbers are 19.5 and 4.5

To check
19.5+4.5=24
19.5-4.5=15

joes family has compleated 60% of a road trip. if they have traveld 30 miles, how far is the full road trip?

Tems11 [23]

The full road trip is 50 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Distance traveled by Joe's family = 30 miles

This represents 60% of the total distance to be traveled.

Let,

x be the total distance.

60% of x = 30

$\frac{60}{100}*x=30\\0.6x=30$

Dividing both sides by 0.6

$\frac{0.6x}{0.6}=\frac{30}{0.6}\\x=50\ miles$

The full road trip is 50 miles.

To get from one town to another, Jack must travel 7 miles east and 24 miles south. What is the direct distance between the two t

Step2247 [10]

The 7 miles and 24 miles make up two "legs" of a right triangle.
The third side (or hypotenuse) is the distance between the towns.
distance^2 = 7^2 + 24^2
distance^2 = 49 + 576
distance^2 = 625
distance = square root of 625 or 25
