Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the larger number.

Let y be the smaller number.

x - y = 5

x^2 - y^2 = 65                   Factor the left.

(x - y)(x + y) = 65               Substitute the first equation into this equation.

5 *(x + y) = 65                   Divide both sides by 5

x + y = 65/5

x + y = 13

Now list the two binomials one after the other.

x + y = 13

x - y =  5                           Add

2x = 18                             Divide by 2

2x/2 = 18/2

x = 9

x + y = 13                          Substitute 9 for x

9 + y = 13                          Subtract 9 from both sides.

y =  13 - 9

y = 4

Answer

  • <em>x = 9</em>
  • <em>y = 4 </em>

A local bicycle shop makes $75 on each
katrin [286]

The inequality that show how  many of each bike model must be sold so the

company avoids losing money is 75x + 90y ≥ $1350

Let x represent the number of model A bikes produced and y represent the number of model B bikes produced.

Since A local bicycle shop makes $75 on each  Model A bike and $90 on each Model B bike, hence:

Revenue = 75x + 90y

The overhead cost is $1350, hence to make profit:

Revenue ≥ cost

75x + 90y ≥ $1350

The inequality that show how  many of each bike model must be sold so the

company avoids losing money is 75x + 90y ≥ $1350

Find the area for this pls
Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

3,36 in^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The geometric shape shown in image is called a trapezoid

to calculate the area of a trapezoid we use the following formula:

1/2*(a+b)*h (a and b are bases, h: height)

bases are 1.3 and 3.5 and height is 1.4

1/2(1.3 + 3.5)*(1.4) = 3,36 the area is stated in square units so the answer is

3,36 in^2
