Let x be larger integer so x-3 is the smaller
so x^2+ x-3 = 87
x^2 +x -90=0 and factor
(x-9)(x+10)=0
x=9 or x=-10 but x must be positive
so x=9 and smaller number is 6

Ivahew [28]

Answer: Children tickets cost 7.50

Adult tickets cost 12.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a represent adult tickets

Let c represent child tickets

On the first day she sells 6 adult tickets and 5 children tickets for total of 112.50. This can be written as:

6a + 5c = 112.50 ...... equation i

On the second day she sells 8 adult tickets and 4 children tickets for the total 130. This can be written as:

8a + 4c = 130 ....... equation ii

6a + 5c = 112.50 ...... equation i

8a + 4c = 130 ....... equation ii

Multiply equation i by 4

Multiply equation ii by 5

24a + 20c = 450 ........ equation iii

40a + 20c = 650 ......... equation iv

Subtract iii from iv

16a = 200

a = 200/16

a = 12.50

Adult tickets cost 12.50

From equation ii,

8a + 4c = 130

8(12.50) + 4c = 130

100 + 4c = 130

4c = 130 - 100

4c = 30

c = 30/4

c = 7.50

Children tickets cost 7.50

A right triangle has an area of 98 square inches. If the triangle is not an Isosceles triangle, what are the all possible length
VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

The possible length of the triangle =

1) (1inches, 196inches)

2) (2incheq, 98inches)

3) (4inches , 49 inches)

4) (7 inches , 28 inches)

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told the above Triangle is not an Isosceles Triangle

Hence, we assume it is a right angle triangle

The area of a triangle is = 1/2 × Base × Height

= let us represent Base and Height = x

Hence:

1/2 × x × x = 98

x² /2 = 98

Cross Multiply

x² = 98 × 2

x² = 196

Step 2

We find the factors of 196

1× 196 = 196 (1, 196)

2 × 98 = 196 (2, 98)

4 ×49 = 196 (4, 49)

7 × 28 = 196 (7, 28)

Therefore, all the possible length of the triangle =

1) (1inches, 196inches)

2) (2incheq, 98inches)

3) (4inches , 49 inches)

4) (7 inches , 28 inches)

Question: is 1 &gt; 0.99999999...?<br>Prove algebraically.
Crazy boy [7]
No.  We claim that 1=0.\overline{9} and use algebra to prove the statement.

Let x=0.\overline{9}.  Multiply this by ten to get 10x=9.\overline{9}.  Subtract the initial equation to give 9x=9 and divide by 9 to see that x=1.  Substituting into the original equation gives 1=0.\overline{9}, proving the desired statement.

triangle ABC was rotated 90 degrees clockwise. Then it underwent a dialtion centered at the origin with a scale factor of 4 what
scoray [572]

Answer: The angles of ΔA'B'C are congruent to the corresponding parts of the original triangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Triangle ABC was rotated 90 degrees clockwise. Then it underwent a dilation centered at the origin with a scale factor of 4.

A rotation is a rigid transformation that creates congruent images but dilation is not a rigid transformation, it creates similar images but not congruent.

Also, the corresponding angles of similar triangles are congruent.

Therefore, The angles of ΔA'B'C are congruent to the corresponding parts of the original triangle.
