Answer:

13 and 8

Step-by-step explanation:

a-b = 5

==> a = b+5

a^2 + b^2 = 233

plug in a = b+5: (b+5)^2 + b^2 = 233

b^ + 10b + 25 + b^2 = 233

2b^2 + 10b -208 = 0

use the quadratic formula:

b = 8 or -13 (-13 doesn't work cuz it asks for positive numbers)

so if b = 8, then a = 5+b = 5+8 = 13

Answer:

25 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

The radius of a hailstorm varies directly

with the amount of time that it was in a cloud.

Radius = k x Time (in the cloud)

k is the constant of proportionality

R = k x T

0.5 = k x 10

k = 0.5/10

k = 0.05

Formula: R = 0.05 x T

1.25 = 0.05 x T

Time = 1.25/0.05

Time = 25 seconds.

Hope this helps :) !

Step2247 [10]

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

When the numerators are the same, the denominator that is bigger has a lesser value. In this case, the inequality > shows that \frac{1}{10} is bigger than the fraction next to it so in order to find a fraction that is lesser in value than  \frac{1}{10}, we need to find a denominator that is <u>more than 10</u>, since 10 is the denominator of the first fraction. The only number more than 10 in the options is 12, so 12 is the answer.

How do I write an algebraic equation for this word problem?
Doss [256]
Hi.

Please note that I haven't done much algebra.

4 more = 4 +

Twice as many than the runner up means 2 times the amount they ate (a variable) = 2n

So far we have 4 + 2n

Since it's an equation, we are going to know what it equals. In the problem, we find out that it's 11. So the equation looks like this:

4 + 2n = 11

If this didn't work out, please let me know.
