I am a number greater than 40,000 and less than 60,000. My ones digit and tens digit are the same. My ten-thousands digit is 1 l
jarptica [38.1K]
I am a number greater than 40,000 and less than 60,000:

40,000 < n < 60,000

This means that:

n = 10,000n₁ + 1,000n₂ + 100n₃ + 11n₄

And also:

4 ≤ n₁ < 6

0 ≤ n₂ ≤ 9

0 ≤ n₃ ≤ 9

0 ≤ n₄ ≤ 9

My ten thousands digit is 1 less than 3 times the sum of my ones digit and tens digit:

n₁ = 3*2n₄ - 1

n₁ = 6n₄ - 1

This means that:

n = 10,000*(6n₄-1) + 1,000n₂ + 100n₃ + 11n₄

n = 60,000n₄ - 10,000 + 1,000n₂ + 100n₃ + 11n₄

n = 60,011n₄ - 10,000 + 1,000n₂ + 100n₃

<span>My thousands digit is half my hundreds digit, and the sum of those two digits is 9:

n</span>₂ = 1/2 * n₃
<span>
n</span>₂ + n₃ = 9
<span>
Therefore:

n</span>₂ = 9 - n₃
<span>
Therefore:

9 - n</span>₃ = 1/2 * n₃
<span>
9 = 1/2 * n</span>₃ + n₃
<span>
9 = 1.5 * n</span>₃
<span>
Therefore:

n</span>₃ = 6
<span>
If n</span>₃=6, n₂=3.
<span>
This means that:

</span>n = 60,011n₄ - 10,000 + 1,000*3 + 100*6

n = 60,011n₄ - 10,000 + 3,000 + 600

n = 60,011n₄ - 6,400

Therefore:

0<n₄<2, so n₄=1.

If n₄=1:

n = 60,011 - 6,400

n = 53,611

Answer:

53,611

How to do this problem​
Mumz [18]

Answer:

y = 3/2x -14

Step-by-step explanation:

do the inverse of -2/3 what is 3/2

and now sole the equation of y+8 = 3/2(x-4)

distribute 3/2 ---> y+8 = 3/2x - 8

subtract 8 from both sided getting you y=3/2x-14
