Answer:

Smaller number: 12

Greater number: 31

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

Let x equal to the smaller number.

Let y be equal to the greater number.

<u>1) Translate the information into equations</u>

"One is 7 more than twice the other"

⇒ y=2x+7

"The sum of the numbers is 43"

⇒ x+y=43

<u>2) Use substitution to solve for the smaller number</u>

x+y=43

Plug the equation y=2x+7 into the above equation

x+(2x+7)=43\\x+2x+7=43\\3x+7=43

Subtract both sides by 7

3x+7-7=43-7\\3x=36

Divide both sides by 3 to isolate x

\frac{3x}{3} = \frac{36}{3} \\x=12

Therefore, the smaller number equates to 12.

<u>3) Use substitution to solve for the greater number</u>

x+y=43

Plug in x as 12

12+y=43

Subtract both sides by 12 to isolate y

12+y-12=43-12\\y=31

Therefore, the greater number equates to 31.

I hope this helps!

GEOMETRY!!! 15 PTSSSSS
ss7ja [257]

Answer:

23) option c

    JL ≈ 9.3

25) option c

      y ≈ 9.6

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>25)</h3>

Given in the question that,

cos(21°) = 9 / y

y = 9/cos(21°)

y = 9.64

y ≈ 9.6(nearest tenth)

<h3>23)</h3>

Given in the question that the hypotenuse of right angle triangle = 12

To find,

height of the right angle triangle

angle k = 39°

so by using trigonometry identity

cos(39) = opp/hypo

cos(39) = JL / KL

JL = cos(39)(12)

JL = 9.32

JL ≈ 9.3
