Answer:

Larger number = 25

Smaller number = 14

Step 1. Establish variables and system of equations

Larger number = x

Smaller number = y

x + y = 39

y + 11 = x

Step 2. Isolate a variable in ONE equation

x + y = 39

y = 39 - x

Step 3. Substitute that into the OTHER equation to find x

y + 11 = x

(39 - x) + 11 = x

50 - x = x

50 = 2x

Step 4. Substitute that into the OTHER equation to find y

x + y = 39

(25) + y = 39

Find the ends of the major axis and foci

poizon [28]

The ends of the major axis is = (0, ± 13) and that of the foci is: (0,±5).

<h3>What is the axis and foci about?</h3>

The term 'foci' is known to be the point at which there is the coming together of light or any other kinds of electromagnetic radiation, particles, etc.

It is also seen as the point from which they seems to go apart.

$\frac{x^{2} }{144} + \frac{y^{2} }{169} = 1$

$\frac{x^{2} }{12^{2} } + \frac{y^{2} }{13^{2} }$

Hence, major axis is = (0, ± 13)

e = $\sqrt{1 -\frac{12^{2} }{13^{2} } }$

= 5/13

Foci is: (0± 13 x $\frac{5}{13}$ )

Foci is: (0, ±5)

Therefore, The ends of the major axis is = (0, ± 13) and that of the foci is: (0,±5).

Select the equation has no solution. A) 2x + 17 - 7x - 6 = 8 - 10x - 19 + 5x B) 7 + 16x + 1 - 4x = 24 + 8x - 9 + 3x C) 9x - 3 +

These problems really aren't hard just set them equal to each other and see if what they are saying is true. Are they equal? Do they both equal 0?
