Answer:

x=13

y=8

Step-by-step explanation:

let the greater number be x and the smaller number be y.

<u>Now</u><u>,</u>

from first condition,

x = y + 5 --------1

from second condition,

x + y = 21

or, x = 21 - y --------2

from equation 1 and 2,

y + 5 = 21 - y

or, 2y = 16

y = 8

now,

putting the value of y in equation 1

x = 8 + 5

= 13

Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

\text{A. }39/50

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability that a randomly selected cap will not be green is equal to the number of non-green caps divided by the total number of caps.

Since there are 100 caps total and 22 are green, there must be 100-22=78 non-green caps.

Divide this by the total number of caps (100) to get the probability that a randomly selected cap will not be green:

\frac{78}{100}

Simplify by dividing both the numerator and denominator by 2:

\frac{78}{100}=\boxed{39/50}

Find the area of an equilateral triangle with radius 22 cm. Round to the nearest whole number.
earnstyle [38]

Answer:this item, we are given with the radius equal to 22 cm.

In this measurement of the radius is the hypotenuse of the 30°-60°-90° triangle formed with the half the measurement of the side of the equilateral triangle being opposite to the 60°  and equal to the hypotenuse times (1/2)(√3)

Step-by-step explanation:

If we let s be the side of the triangle then,

                 s/2 = r(1/2)(√3)

Multiplying the equation by 2,

                 s = r√3

Substituting,

              s = (22 cm)(√3) = 22√3

The area of the equilateral triangle is computed through the equation,

         A = (√3 / 4)(s²)

Substituting,

         A = (√3 / 4)(22√3)² = 628.7 cm²

Therefore, the answer to this item is the first choice.
