Mathematics
1 answer:
Flauer [41]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The two numbers are 29 and 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x and y be the two numbers

x = 2y-7

x+y = 47

We have two equations and 2 unknowns

Substituting the first equation into the second equation

2y-7+y = 47

Combine like terms

3y -7 = 47

3y-7+7 = 47+7

3y = 54

Divide by 3

3y/3 = 54/3

y = 18

Now find x

x = 2y-7

x = 2*18 -7

x = 36-7

x = 29

The two numbers are 29 and 18

Determine whether the vectors u and v are parallel, orthogonal, or neither. u = <6, -2>, v = <8, 24>
ratelena [41]
We'll check if they're orthogonal:
u*v=0
(6,-2)*(8,24)=0
6*8+(-2)*24=0
48-48=0
0=0
they are orthogonal vectors

This week, Ariel ended up needing 12 gallons of gas. That is 20% more than she needed last
Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

10 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

She used 12 gallons this week and used 20% more than last week. That means 12 gallons is 120% of last weeks gas. Since 12 times 10 equals 120, then to find 20% you do 20 divided 10 and subtract the answer from 12.

20% is 2 because 20 divided by 10 is 2. 12 minus 2 is 10

Hope this helps :)
