Answer:

another number =27

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X stand for the larger number. The smaller number is therefore X - 13. We can now write the sum of the two numbers as:

X + (X - 13) = 4

X + X - 13 = 41

Gather the X’s and rewrite as,

2X - 13 = 41

Add 13 to both sides to get

2X = 54

Divide both sides by 2 to solve for X,

X = 27

A car starts with a dull tank of gas. After driving around 5he city, 1/7 of the gas has been used. With the rest of the gas in t
Sati [7]

Answer:

\frac{2}{7}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

A car starts with a dull tank of gas

1/7 of the gas has been used around the city.

With the rest of the gas in the car, the car can travel to and from Ottawa three times.

Question asked:

What fractions of a tank of gas does each complete trip to Ottawa use?

Solution:

Fuel used around the city = \frac{1}{7}

Remaining fuel after driving around the city = 1 - \frac{1}{7}

                                                                         =    \frac{7 - 1}{7}  = \frac{6}{7}

According to question:

As from the rest of the gas in the car that is \frac{6}{7}, the car can complete 3 trip to Ottawa  which means,

By unitary method:

The car can complete 3 trip by using = \frac{6}{7} tank of gas.

The car can complete 1 trip by using =  \frac{6}{7} \div 3

                                                             =\frac{6}{7} \times\frac{1}{3}

                                                             =  \frac{6}{21}

                                                             = \frac{2}{7} tank of gas

Thus, \frac{2}{7} tank of gas used for each complete trip to Ottawa.

VashaNatasha [74]

Answer:

this question is not complete. need another equation

Step-by-step explanation:

give another equation then I can solve

\frac{3}{8} x =  \frac{17}{24}  -  \frac{1}{3} y \\ x =  \frac{17}{9}  -  \frac{8}{9} y

Scaler factor of 1/2
olasank [31]

Dilation by a scale factor of 1/2 followed by a translation of 1.5 units down.

<h3>What is dilation?</h3>

Dilation is a transformation, which is used to resize the object. Dilation is used to make the objects larger or smaller.

Here, △ HIJ are:

IH = 3

IJ = 4

then using the scale factor = 1/2 we get

Therefore, we have:

I'H '= 1.5

I'J '= 2

Hence, dilation by a scale factor of 1/2 followed by a translation of 1.5 units down.
