Yes, as long as it's between the two numbers
51) -4 and 1
52) -1 and -3
53) -9 and -10
Answer:
y=x+4
Step-by-step explanation:
So, let's start with the fact that we have two numbers. Let's call one of them "x" and the other one "y." Let's also assume that "y" is the larger number and "x" is the smaller number.
We know that both of them added together (the sum) gives us 74. Mathematically, that means:
x+y=74.
We also know that the larger number ("y") is 4 more than the smaller number ("x"). Another way to say this is, if you have the smaller number and add 4 more to it, you'll end up with the larger number. Mathematically, this means:
y=x+4
Since we know that y=x+4, we can put "x+4" into the first equation for "y", giving us:
x+(x+4)=74
Simplifying gives us:
2x+4=74
-4 -4
---------
2x=70
--- ---
2 2
x=35
Since we now know that x=35, and we know that y=x+4, we now know that:
y=(35)+4
y=39
Now that we have both of the numbers, we should check our work to ensure it's correct:
Does 39+35=74? Yes it does.
Is 39 (the larger of the two numbers) four more than the smallest number (35)? Yes it is.
Answer:
b = 19.2
Step-by-step explanation:
9.6 = ½b
=> 9.6 × (2/1) = b
=> 9.6 × 2 = b
=> 19.2 = b
Answer: 1 hour
Step-by-step explanation:
2 gallons in, 3 gallons out per minute
means 1 gallon lost per minute
60 gallons in the tank so it will take 60 minutes to drain it completely
answer=1hr
