Hello!
To solve this problem, we will use a system of equations. We will have one number be x and the other y. We will use substitutions to solve for each variable.
x+y=9
x=2y-9
To solve for the two numbers, we need to solve the top equation. The second equation shows that x=2y-9. In the first equation, we can replace 2y-9 for x and solve.
2y-9+y=9
3y-9=9
3y=18
y=6
We now know the value of y. Now we need to find x. We can plug in 6 for y in the second equation to find x.
x=2·6-9
x=12-9
x=3
Just to check, we will plug these two numbers into the first equation.
3+6=9
9=9
Our two numbers are three and six.
I hope this helps!
2/3 divided by 1/2 equals 3/4.
So your answer would be 1/2.

Answer:
tan A = -15/8.
Step-by-step explanation:
sin^2a = 1 - cos^2A
= 1 - (-8/17)^2
= 225/289
So sin A= 15/17
tan A = sin A / cos A
= 15/17 / -8/17
= 15/-8
= -15/8.
This problem requires the Pythagorean therom.
The distance between them is 7.
Since the distance between them is one more mile than ray's distance from home ray is 6 miles from home.
So rosa is 
So rosa is 
miles away from home.
Rosa is about 3.6 miles from home.
Answer:
87 total hours.
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation 456/12 Gives you how many hours Sienna worked. (38)
642-480 will give you how much money Serena made off of Just OT (162)
162/18 = 9 (9 is how many overtime hours Serena worked.)
Serena worked her normal 40 hours, then worked over time, so you have to add 40 to the equation.
9+40+38 = 87
Serena and Sienna worked 87 total hours.
