The sum of two numbers is 72 and their difference is 40. Using elimination method
1 answer:
Answer:
here's what we know:
a + b = 72
a - b = 26
We can use the elimination method to solve this problem:
a + b = 72
a - b = 26
---------------
2a = 98
Divide both sides by 2:
a = 49
So we now have:
49 + b = 72
and:
49 - b = 26
Subtract 49 from both sides:
b = 23
and
-b = -23 (multiply both sides by -1) → b = 23

Answer:
b = 26°
Step-by-step explanation:
a ; b = complementary =>
a + b = 90° } => b = 90° - 64° = 26°
a = 64°
X^2 + 3x - 4 = 6
x^2 + 3x -10 = 0
(x + 5)(x - 2) =0
x = -5 or x = 2
solution set is {-5,2}
