Let's have the first number, the larger number, be <em>x</em>. We'll have the second, smaller number be <em>y</em>.
We know that x = y + 6, since x is 6 greater than y.
We also know that 330 = x + y.
Because x = y + 6, 330 = y + 6 + y, which simplifies to 330 = 2y + 6.
Now all we need to do is simplify the equation. First, we subtract 6 from both sides:
330 - 6 = 324
2y + 6 - 6 = 2y.
So we have 324 = 2y. Then we divide both sides by 2 to get:
162 = y
Plug in y = 162 into the equation x = y + 6 to get:
x = 162 + 6
x = 168
Let's check to make sure our answer is right. 168 is 6 more than 162. 162 + 168 equals 330. So our two numbers are 168 and 162.
Answer:
6x
Step-by-step explanation:
x²+9-__=(x-3)²
lets dissosiate this one (x-3)²
(x-3)²=(x-3)(x-3)
=x²-3x-3x+9
=x²-6x+9 so x²+9-6x
so the answer is 6x
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
it's another one of those similar triangles
it's easier to see this one.
t /c = u / b
where
t = 7x + 3
c = 27
u = 35
b = 21
plug in the knowns
7x + 3 / 27 = 35 / 21
7x + 3 = 27 ( 35 / 21 )
7x + 3 = 9 ( 35 / 7 ) ( divided by 3 )
7x + 3 = 9 ( 5) ( 7 into 35 =5 )
7x + 3 = 45
7x = 45 - 3
7x = 42
x = 6
I checked it, the ratio is 1_2/3 :) for both, but you can check it too
