Answer:

x=92 y=23

Step-by-step explanation:

Let them be x and y respectively

so given

x-y=69

and

x/y=4  x=4y

so we can write

x-y=69

as

4y-y=69  3y=69 y= 69/3 = 23

now y is 23

so putting in any equation will give the value of x

so

x-23=69 x=92

a cake divided into 10 equal slices.kim ate 3/5 of 1/2 of cake. what part of the whole cake did kim ate? ​
joja [24]

Answer:

3/10 of the whole cake

Step-by-step explanation:

When you divide a cake in halve you get 5 pieces on each side, if Kim ate 3/5 of 1/2 of the cake, then she ate 3 pieces, so she ate 3/10 of the cake, and other way to figure this out is multiplying the two fractions, 3/5 x 1/2 = 3/10

What is 3^(3/2) equal to
Delicious77 [7]
It equals 5.1962.... If it's 3/2 then you can do 3 divided by 2 and you'll get 1.5. If you have a scientific calculator you can do 3 to the power of 1.5 which will get you your answer.

The sum of two numbers is 9 . one number is nine less than twice the other. find the two numbers.
dimulka [17.4K]
Hello!

To solve this problem, we will use a system of equations. We will have one number be x and the other y. We will use substitutions to solve for each variable.

x+y=9
x=2y-9

To solve for the two numbers, we need to solve the top equation. The second equation shows that x=2y-9. In the first equation, we can replace 2y-9 for x and solve.

2y-9+y=9
3y-9=9
3y=18
y=6

We now know the value of y. Now we need to find x. We can plug in 6 for y in the second equation to find x.

x=2·6-9
x=12-9
x=3

Just to check, we will plug these two numbers into the first equation.


3+6=9
9=9

Our two numbers are three and six.

I hope this helps!

5/6x-4=-2 Sole the equation, thanks!
ira [324]
5/6x -4 = -2
5/6x = 2
multiply both sides by 6 to get rid of the fraction.
5x = 12
x = 2.4
