Answer:
x = 20
X was found using the Pythagorean theorem
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi,
I cannot see the equations so...
X=-3X=2 —> move the variable to the left handed side and change its sign
-2x=2 —> collect like terms
Divide both sides of the equation by -2 and your answer is x=-1
Answer:
7 and 9
Step-by-step explanation:
Variables:
x = smaller number
y = larger number
We can set up two equations with the information given:
5x + 3y = 62
and
y = x + 2
We get the second equation with the information that the two numbers are consecutive and both odd. therefore the smaller number is two less than the larger number, and the larger number is two greater than the smaller number.
Next, we need to replace our y in the first equation with the y in the second:
5x + 3y = 62
5x + 3 (x+2) = 62
5x + 3x + 6 = 62
8x = 56
x (smaller number) = 7
Finally, we solve for the larger number by placing it back into the second equation:
y = x + 2
y = 7 + 2
y (larger number) = 9
I hope this helps!
