Answer: See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Le the number be x and x+2

The information given can be formed into and equation as:

(x + 2)² = x² + 120

(x + 2)(x + 2) = x² + 120

x² + 2x + 2x + 4 = x² + 120

Collect like terms

x² - x² + 2x + 2x = 120 - 4

4x = 116

x = 116/4

x = 29

The smallest number is 29

The larger number is x + 2 = 29 + 2 = 31

What is the equation of a line that passes through (-2,1) and is parallel to y=3x-4
Rama09 [41]
If a line is parallel to another, the slopes of both lines are the same. So for this problem, you can infer that the slope of the line you're trying to find is 3.

To find the actual equation of the line, you can use the given coordinates and plug them into the point slope form:

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

plug the given y coordinate into y1 and the given x coordinate into x1. m is the slope, so plug in 3 for m.

y - 1 = 3(x +2) Use distributive property for right side of equation

y - 1 = 3x + 6 add 1 to both sides to cancel -1 on left side of equation and isolate y

Equation of line: y = 3x + 7

The line segment has an endpoint (5,-6) and the midpoint is (-2,3). Find the other point.
gavmur [86]

Answer:

(-9,12)

Step-by-step explanation:

Endpoint\:= (5,-6) = x_1,y_1\\Midpoint = \: (-2,3)=x\:,y\\\\x = \frac{x_1+x_2}{2}\\\\ -2 = \frac{5+x_2}{2} \\-4 = 5+x_2\\-4-5=x_2\\-9 =x_2\\\\y = \frac{y_1+y_2}{2} \\\\3 = \frac{-6+y_2}{2} \\6 = -6+y_2\\6+(6)=y_2\\6+6=y_2\\12=y_2\\x_2 ,y_2=(-9,12)
