Let the smaller number be x and the larger number be y.
We can calculate this by using simultaneous equation, aka listing 2 equations out.
From given,
X + y = 43
Let this be equation no. 1
X + 19 = y
Let this number be equation 2.
We can do simultaneous equations either by substitute method or elimination. In this case I'm using substitute.
We can already obtain the value of y (in terms of x) in euqation no. 2, so all we gonna do is to put y into equation 1.
X + x + 19 = 43
Solve this by algebra.
2x = 43 - 19
X = 12
Now we know the exact value of x
Now substitute x = 12 into equation no. 2
12 + 19 = y
Y = 31
So the answer is 12 and 31
Your answer is 36 times 2
Answer:
12 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Alyssa takes part in the triathlon. She cycles 4/5 of the route, runs 1/8 of the route, and swims the rest of the way. She swims 0.9 miles. Find the total distance of the triathlon route.
Total distance Alyssa cycled and ran =
= 
Distance she swam = 1 - 37/40 = 3/40
3/40 of the distance is 0.9
the total distance = 40/3 x 0.9 = 12 miles
Answer:
3520
Step-by-step explanation:
33-11=22
40 times 22=880
880 times 4=3520
Answer:
x = ± 2
Step-by-step explanation:
given
40 - x² = 0 ( add x² to both sides )
40 = x² or
x² = 40 ( take the square root of both sides )
x = ± 
= ± 
= ± 2
