It's a simultaneous equation:
Steps:
1.Number the equations..
a+b=77 -1
a-b=13 -2
2. Choose what variable you want to use. In this case I would use the "b". Since the signs in front of the "b's" are different, add the two equations together
a + b = 77
+ + +
a (-b) = 13
Which gives;
2a = 90
Then solve to find a:
2a=90
a= 90/2
a=45
3.Then plug the "a" value into any of the original equations to find the "b" value. I would use equation 1 since the all the variables are positive.
a + b = 77
(45) + b = 77
b=77-45
b=32
4.Solution
a=45
b=32
Answer: 13.722 km ; or, write as: 13 13/18 km .
___________________________________________________
Explanation:
___________________________________________________
Area = Length * width ;
___________________________________________________
or, write as: A = L * w ;
________________________
Given: A = 247 km² ;
L = 18 km ;
w = "y" ;
________________________
Find: "y"
______________________________
A = L * w ;
______________________________
Plug in our values:
______________________________
247 km² = 18 km * "y" ; solve for "y" (in units of "km") ;
_____________________________
18 y = 247 ;
___________________________________________________________
Divide each side of the equation by "18"; to isolate "y" on one side of the equation; and to solve for "y" :
___________________________________________________________
18 y / 18 = 247 / 18 ;
_____________________________________________
to get:
_____________________________________________
y = 13.7222222222222222...... km ; round to: 13.722 km
or; y = 13 13/18 km .

Answer:
7 : 8
Step-by-step explanation:
150 adults complete a survey. 80 are women. Thus the ratio of number of men to number of women . Therefore the number of men to number of women be 7 : 8
