Answer:
I would set this up as:
let: lesser number = x
greater number = 2x + 5
Restating the word problem:
lesser number + greater number = 38
x + 2x + 5 = 38
Solving: 3x + 5 = 38
- 5 -5
---------------
3x = 33
--- ---
3 3
x = 11
Substitution for the greater number:
2(11) + 5
22 + 5
27
Answer:
5/3 or 1.67
Step-by-step explanation:
Find the slope of the original line
3x+5y=4 Subtract 3x from both sides
5y = - 3x + 4 Divide both sides by 5
y = (-3/5)x + 4
The original line has a slope of - 3/5 or - 0.6
Find the slope of the perpendicular line
m1 * m2 = - 1
m1 = - 3/5
m2 = -1/(-3/5)
m2 = 5/3
The slope of the perpendicular line is
5/3 or 1.67
The answer to your question is going to be 65.2
[12(.3)+x(1)]/(12+x)=.4
3.6+x=4.8+.4x
.6x=1.2
x=2 qts
(though your radiator would still be short a quart for doing so :) )
