Step-by-step explanation:

The smaller number is 18.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let larger number = x and  smaller number = \dfrac{2}{3} x32x

To find, the smaller number = ?

According to question,

x+\dfrac{2}{3} x=45x+32x=45

⇒ \dfrac{3x+2x}{3} =4533x+2x=45

⇒ 5x=45\times 35x=45×3

⇒ 5x=1355x=135

⇒ x =\dfrac{135}{5} =27x=5135=27

∴ Smaller number =\dfrac{2}{3} \times 27=2\times 9 =18=32×27=2×9=18

Hence, the smaller number is 18.

(Giving 70 points! Also brainly, if it isnt a good answer it gets reported!)
Sati [7]

Answer: Answers provided below in sequential order.



Step-by-step explanation: UV = 12(3)-1

(They said that x = 3)

UV = 35 (12*3-1)

70 = TV

TU = UV

8x + 11 = 12x - 1

-4x = 10

x = -10/4 or -5/2 (simplified)

TU = 8 (3) + 11

TU = 35 (24+11)

Find an equation of the line passing through the given points. Write the equation in the function notation.
Mrrafil [7]
First you need to find the slope of the line using the given coordinates of the two points.
The slope of the line = (1-4)/(4-3) = -3
Then you choose one pair of the coordinates given, either (3,4) or (4,1) , up to you, to find the equation of the line.
If you choose (3,4)
Then
(y-4)/(x-3) = -3
(y-4) = -3x+9
y = -3x+13

If you choose (4,1),
Then
(y-1)/(x-4) = -3
y-1 = -3x+12
y = -3x+13

So, F(x)=-3x+13

The measurement of the supplement of an angle is 7 times the measure of the complement. find the measure of the complement
mamaluj [8]
<span>x = angle 90 - x = measure of complement of x 180 - x = measure of supplement of x From the information given in the problem, we get this: 180 - x = 7 (90 - x) 180 - x = 630 - 7x -x + 7x = 630 - 180 6x = 450 x = 450/6 x = 75. Now we prove that x = 75° is the correct angle: x = 75° = measure of angle 90° - 75° = 15° = meaure of complement 180° - 75° = 105° = 7 (15°)</span>
