Answer:Let's assume x be the smaller number.
Given that, The greater number is 4 more than the smaller number.
So, greater number= x+4.
It's also given that, The sum of two numbers is 52. Which means sum of x and x+4 must be equa to 52. Hence,
x + (x + 4) = 52
Step-by-step explanation:
Approximately equal to symbol
And it’s mostly used in terms of numerical approximations
83 is a whole number and cannot be simplified.
The answer is x = 10, y = 10.
Step 1: rearrange the second equation for y.
Step 2: substitute y from the second equation into the first equation.
Step 3. Calculate y.
Step 1.
<span>The second equation is: 6x + 3y = 90
Divide both sides of the equation by 3:
(6x + 3y)/3 = 90/3
6x/3 + 3y/3 = 30
2x + y = 30
Rearrange the equation:
y = 30 - 2x
Step 2.
</span>Substitute y from the second equation (y = 30 - 2x) into the first equation:
<span>15x + 9y = 240
15x + 9(30 - 2x) = 240
15x + 270 - 18x = 240
15x - 18x = 240 - 270
-3x = -30
x = -30/-3
x = 10
Step 3.
Since </span>y = 30 - 2x and x = 10, then:
y = 30 - 2 * 10
y = 30 - 20
y = 10
Convert all statistics into percentages:
CA: 3/25=0.12 -> 12%
NY: 3/50=0.06 -> 6%
TX: 2/25=0.08->8%
(A) Out of the three states, California has the largest population
(B) Out of the three states, NY has the smallest population
(C) USA=100%, CA+NY+TX=26%, therefore 74% of USA do not live on those three states.
