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

-4 + (-8) -5
-4-8-5= -17
Answer:
below.
Step-by-step explanation:
408 = 2*2*2*3*17
1032 = 2*2*2*3*43
So the HCF is 2*2*2*3 = 24
24 = 2/1032 + p/408
24 - 2/1032 = p/408
p = (24 - 2/1032) * 408
p = 9791.21 to nearest hundredth.
Answer:
BCF is the correct answer
