Let
a------------> first number
b------------> second number
we know that
a+b=-7--------> a=-7-b----------> equation 1
a-b=14--------> equation 2
<span>I substitute 1 in 2
</span>
(-7-b)-b=14-------------> -7-b-b=14----------> -7-2b=14-------> 2b=-7-14
2b=-21---------> b=-10.5
a=-7-b-------> a=-7-(-10.5)-----> a=-7+10.5------> a=3.5
the answer is
the two numbers are
a=3.5
and
b=-10.5
Draw a diagram.
the two are similar bc of AAsimilarity
so 8.8 is to 4 as 22 is to x
basically the answer is 10 ft tall
1. Subtract 3x from both sides
2y = 18 - 3x
2. Divide both sides by 2
y = 18 - 3x/2
3. Factor out the common term 3
y = 3(6 - x)/2
