Alik [6]3 years ago

Answer:

x - y = 9

x = 9 + y (equation 1)

Their sum is 46

x + y =46

(9 + y) + y = 46

9 + 2y = 46

2y = 46 - 9

2y = 37

y = 37/2

y = 18.5 ( one number)

second number =

place the value of y in equation 1

x = 9 + 18.5

x = 27.5

The two numbers are 18.5 and 27.5

Step-by-step explanation:

X + y = 46 x=46-y

x - y= 9

46 - y - y= 9

46 - 2y = 9

Y=37/2

Piper works at a camera store. He is paid an hourly rate +16% commission on everything he sells. One week, he was paid $515 for
umka21 [38]
His hourly rate is $13.75.

Let x be the hourly rate.  Since he works 20 hours that week, the hourly wages are given by 20x.  We add to that his commission, which is 16% of the $1500 in sales, or 0.16(1500).  This totals to 515:

20x + 0.16(1500) = 515
20x + 240 = 515

Subtract 240 from both sides:
20x + 240 - 240 = 515 - 240
20x = 275

Divide both sides by 20:
20x/20 = 275/20
x = 13.75.

.If the side of an equilateral triangle is 6cm, then the area of triangle is
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

9\sqrt{3} cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

area of an equilateral triangle = \frac{s^{2} \sqrt{3} }{4} (s = length of the side)

area = \frac{6^{2}\sqrt{3}  }{4}

area = \frac{36\sqrt{3} }{4}

area = 9\sqrt{3} cm^2

What shape is always created in graphing the addition of two vectors?
Gennadij [26K]
<h3>Answer: Parallelogram</h3>

You could use the parallelogram rule to add the vectors, or you could use the tip-to-tail method (your textbook might call it the "head to tail method" but it's the same idea).

An example of the parallelogram method is shown below with adding the vector u = (-4,4) in red to the vector v = (8,2) in blue to get the vector w = (4,6) in green. The green resultant vector is one of the diagonals of the parallelogram

Side note: The other diagonal is either u-v or v-u depending on your reference point.

Hailey cuts a 7-inch square piece of plywood for a birdhouse. She rotates the piece 90° counterclockwise. What is the length in
Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

\huge\boxed{7\  \text{inches}}

Step-by-step explanation:

As I mentioned earlier with a single side (line), rotations do not change the size of something. Only dilations do that. This goes for both lines AND shapes.

However, if the question said she dilated the piece, then yes, the length in inches would be different. However, rotation just changes the position and nothing happens to the length.

Hope this helped!

Write each decimal as a fraction or mixed number in simplest form.<br> 1 3/8
Mnenie [13.5K]

3/2

<em>Step One:</em> 1 3/8, transform the number into a improper fraction:

  1. To have a mixed number in to a improper fraction, you need to use            addition and multiplication.  For 1 3/8, We first multiply the denominator (8, also know to be the bottom number of the fraction) to the whole number (1).  8x1= 8
  2. NOTE: The original denominator (8) will be use for are improper, again playing as the denominator, we only multiply the denominator for the numerator (which is the top number of a fraction).
  3. After multiplying, we'll add are product with the numerator (3) for the process. 8+3= 12
  4. Now we have both numerator and denominator for 1 3/8, we can create the improper fraction. 12 as the numerator and 8 as the denominator. 12/8
  5. We still need to simplify the number. To that, we need the biggest whole number, or rather I call it the lowest number, that can be divide both in 12 and 8.
  6. 4 can be divide by both number so: 12/4= 3 and 8/4=2
  7. Now 3 is are simplify numerator and 2 is are simplify denominator.
