The sum of two numbers is 3, and twice the larger number is 36 more than three times the smaller number. Find the numbers.

Answer:

x = -6

y = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of two numbers is 3

x + y = 3

twice the larger number is 36 more than three times the smaller number

2y = 3x + 36

Divide both sides by 2

y = 1.5x + 18

substitute for y in the first equation

x + (1.5x + 18) = 3

2.5x = -15

divide both sides by 2.5

x = -6

Substitute for x in the first equation

-6 + y = 3

y = 9

What 75% of two hundred
Ghella [55]

To find 75% of 200, we can multiply two fractions.

75/100 * 200/1

Now, just multiply the numerators and the denominators separately.

75 * 200 = 15000

100 * 1 = 100

Now, divide.

15000/100 = 150

<h3>75% of 200 is 150.</h3>

Helpp i will give brainiest
creativ13 [48]

Answer:

m=75

percentage= 32

part= 24

whole= 75

Step-by-step explanation:

To get m, you divide 18 by .24(since it's the decimal form of 24%) and you get 75.

The part/whole part I'm not exactly sure about but since it's 24% of 75, I'm guessing the part is 24 and the whole is 75 and that's the entire thing we are working with here.

To get the percentage, we use the 24/75 fraction. We have to get the demonator to 100 but since 75 can't be multiplied by anything to get to 100, we have to simplfy the fraction so the demonator can go into 100. I divided the fraction by 3 since that would get the fraction to 8/25. 25 can go into 100 if we multiply by 4 so that's what you do. The ending fraction would be 32/100 after multiplying the numerator and demonator by 4(8/24). So the percentage would be 32% or 32/100.

I have never done this is my life but it is similar to what I have done so please correct me if I am wrong. I hope this helped you and I am incredibly sorry if it is wrong.

Write the slope intercept form of the equation of the line passing through the point (5, -4) and perpendicular to the line y=-4/
n200080 [17]
Y = -4/3x + 5....the slope here is -4/3. A perpendicular line will have a negative reciprocal slope. To find the negative reciprocal, flip the original slope and change the sign. So we have -4/3....we flip it and it becomes - 3/4....we change the sign and it becomes 3/4. So the perpendicular line will have a slope of 3/4.

y = mx + b
slope(m) = 3/4
(5,-4)...x = 5 and y = -4
now we sub into the formula and find b, the y int
-4 = 3/4(5) + b
-4 = 15/4 + b
-4 - 15/4 = b
-16/4 - 15/4 = b
-31/4 = b
so ur perpendicular equation is : y = 3/4x + (-31/4) which is written as :
 y = 3/4x - 13/4 <== ur answer
