Let the two numbers be x and y.
Let m = the fraction (or percentage) for increasing the numbers.
Increase x by 5, multiply (x+5) by (1+m), and set it qual to 36.
(x + 5)*(1 + m) = 36
Increase y by 5, multiply (y+5) by (1+m), and set it equal to 36.
(y+5)*(1+m) = 36
Therefore
(x+5)*(1+m) = (y+5)*(1+m)
x + 5 = y + 5
x = y
x - y = 0
Answer: 0.
The difference between the two numbers is zero.
Answer:
thats alot of people don't you think
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x = 6
y = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the two numbers be x and y
<u><em>Condition 1:</em></u>
7x+3y = 54 -----------(1)
<u><em>Condition 2:</em></u>
x = 2+y -----------------(2)
<em>Putting (2) in (1)</em>
=> 7(y+2)+3y = 54
=> 7y+14+3y = 54
=> 10y = 54-14
=> 10y = 40
<em>Dividing both sides by 10</em>
=> y = 4
<em>Now putting y = 4 in eq(2)</em>
=> x = 2+4
=> x = 6
Answer:
x-intercept : (0,0)
y-intercept : (0,0)
Step-by-step explanation: To find the x-intercept, substitute in 0 for y and solve for x. To find the y-intercept, substitute in 0 for x and solve for y.
