The sum of two numbers is 18 and their difference is 4 what are the two numbers?

Mathematics
1 answer:
yarga [219]2 years ago

Answer:

7 and 11

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the two numbers be x and y

x+y = 18

x-y = 4

Add the two equations together to eliminate y

x+y = 18

x-y = 4

----------------

2x +0y = 22

Divide each side by 2

2x/2 = 22/2

x = 11

Solve for y

x+y = 18

11+y =18

Subtract 11 from each side

11+y-11 =18-11

y = 7

The two numbers are 7 and 11

Write the equation of the line graphed below in Point-Slope form. Use the point labeled on the graph. State the slope and point.
saw5 [17]

Given:

The graph of a line.

To find:

The point-slope form of the given line.

Solution:

From the given graph it is clear that the line passes through the point (1,5) and (0,-1). So, the slope of the line is:

m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

m=\dfrac{-1-5}{0-1}

m=\dfrac{-6}{-1}

m=6

The slope of the line is 6 and it passes through the point (1,5). So, the point slope form of the line is:

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)

y-5=6(x-1)

Therefore, the point-slope form is y-5=6(x-1), slope is 6 and the point is (1,5).

What is the difference between rates and proportions???
frez [133]
A rate often involves time:  e. g., 33 feet per second; also, we are finding the ratio of one type of measurement with respect to another:  distance and time.

A proportion is often the ratio of different measures of the same thing:

e. g.   5 apples
          ------------
           7 apples
