Let x = the larger number
Let x - 17 = the smaller number
x + x + 17 = 41
2x + 17 = 41
2x = 58
x = 29
x - 17 = 29 - 17 = 12

HELP PLEASE!! WILL MARK BRAINLIEST!!!!
elixir [45]

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{1}{x^{2} } +  \frac{2}{y}/ \frac{5}{x} -\frac{6}{y^2}

find common denominator and add the fractions in numerator and denominator:

1/x² + 2/y = y+2x²/x²y

5/x -6/y² =5y² -6x/xy²

(y+2x²)/x²y / (5y²-6x)/xy² change into multiplication

(y+2x²)/x²y * xy²/(5y²-6x)

\frac{y+2x^{2} }{x^{2} y} *\frac{xy^{2} }{5y^{2}-6x } simplify

y(y+2x²)/ x(5y²-6x)

sum of two numbers is 39. the greater number is 7 more than the smaller number. ( set up an equation )
pochemuha
Let x be the unknown number

2x +7 = 39

2x+7-7 = 39-7

2x = 32

2x/2 = 32/2

x=16

You use the balance method to solve. First, you cancel the +7 by subtracting the 7 ON BOTH SIDES to balance the equation.. After that, you are left with 2x, where you will need to isolate the x by dividing by 2 ON BOTH SIDES to balance it.

Hope this helps

Without graphing, is the system independent, dependent, inconsistent? {12x=3y=12 y=-4x+5
Alla [95]
Okay so you out them into the form of y=mx+b. since equation 2 is already like that you need to do it to equation 1. which is y=-4x+4. graph both equations. if it has a solution (1 point where the two lines meet) it is consistantly and independent. if they are parallel lines and the solution is 0 the system is inconsistent and the lines are dependent. if it's the same line they are consistent and dependent. the line is not the same since the y intercept is different. the slope is the same though which tells us its parallel. so the system has a solution of 0 and is inconsistent and the lines are independent.
