Answer:

41.5

23.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's start by calling the two numbers we are looking for x and y.

The sum of x and y is 65. In other words, x plus y equals 65 and can be written as equation A:

x + y = 65

The difference between x and y is -18. In other words, x minus y equals -18 and can be written as equation B:

x - y = -18

Now solve equation B for x to get the revised equation B:

x = -18 + y

Then substitute x in equation A from the revised equation B and then solve for y:

x + y = 65

-18+y+y=65

-18 + 2y = 65

2y = 83

y = 41.5

Now we know y is 41.5. Which means that we can substitute y for 41.5 in equation A and solve for x:

x + y = 65

x + 41.5= 65

X = 23.5

DIfference : 23.5 - 41.5 = 18

Sum: 41.5 +23.5 = 65

Hence, The two number are 23.5 and 41.5

How is a rational number converted to its decimal form?
luda_lava [24]

Answer:

Answer to first question is:

You can convert all fractions to decimals. The decimal forms of rational numbers either end or repeat a pattern. If the fraction is a mixed number, change it to an improper fraction. Divide the numerator by the denominator. If the division doesn't come out evenly, round the decimal off.

Answer to second question is: 0.222222

Answer to third question is: Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

Well the way I think of it is:

3/9 as a fraction is 1/3... so 1 divided by 3 equals 0.333333 repeating. You can even write it as:

   _

0.3 with the fraction bar over it because it keeps repeating.

This goes for 2/9. All you have to do is do 2 divided by 9 and you get 0.222222 repeating. You can even write it as:

<h3>   _</h3>

0.2 with the fraction bar over it because it keeps repeating.

Hope this helps, have a good day. c;

What is the solution of √1-3x = x+3 ?<br><br><br>​
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

{-1, -8}

Step-by-step explanation:

Please enclose "1 - 3x" inside parentheses so the reader will know that you want the square root of all of "1 - 3x".

Squaring both sides of the given equation, we get:

1 - 3x = x^2 + 6x + 9, or  x^2 + 6x + 8 + 3x, or

x^2 + 9x + 8 = 0.  Factoring, we get:  (x + 8)(x + 1) = 0, so that the solutions are {-1, -8}.

How do I find the arc??
olganol [36]
A circle is 360° all the way around; therefore, if you divide anarc's<span> degree measure by 360°, you find the fraction of the circle's circumference that the </span>arc<span> makes up. Then, if you multiply the length all the way around the circle (the circle's circumference) by that fraction, you get the length along the</span>arc<span>.</span>
