4. One number is 16 more than another. The ratio of the smaller number to
the larger number is 3: 7. What is the value of the smaller number?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

So if the difference between the two number is 16 and the distance between the two numbers in the ratio is 4, that means the real numbers are 4 times greater than the ratio (because 4 * 4 = 16).

This means that you can multiply both sides of the ratio by 4 to get the two numbers 3: 7 --> 3*4: 7 * 4 --> 12: 28.

This means that the smaller number is 12.

hope that makes sense!

Find the equation of the straight line passing through the points (–2, 3) and parallel to y=2x-1

Answers

Answer:

[tex]y=2x+7[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

All parallel lines have the same slope, so in slope intercept form, our line is going to look like

[tex]y=2x+b[/tex]

To find b, we can plug in the x and y values from the given point (-2, 3) and solve:

[tex]3=2(-2)+b\\3=-4+b\\b=7[/tex]

So our equation becomes

[tex]y=2x+7[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

(7 + 2x) / 3 = 5

Cross product

7 + 2x = 5 * 3

7 + 2x = 15

Subtract 7 from both sides

2x = 15 - 7

2x = 8

Divide both sides by 2

x = 8/2

x = 4

Rectangle FGHJ has diagonals FH and JG that intersect at M. If FJ=−3x+5y, FM=3x+y, GH=11, and GM=13, find the values of x and y. Explain your answer.

Answers

Answer:

x=3 y=4

Step-by-step explanation:

   -3x + 5y = 11

+   3x + y = 13

Add the equation (add the 5y and y. Then add the 11 and 13). The threes cancel each other out. It then leaves us with the equation:

6y = 24

Divide both sides by 6 to isolate the variable.

y=4.

Then just substitute the variable into any of the equations above. (I chose the equation on top)

-3x + 5(4) = 11

Then solve

-3x + 20 = 11 (then subtract 20 from both sides)

-3x = -9 (then divide both sides by -3)

x=3

Answer:

x = 43.5°

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the angles around a point = 360°

sum the angles and equate to 360

x + x + 72 + 111 + 90= 360

2x + 273° = 360° ( subtract 273° from both sides )

2x = 87° ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 43.5°

Answer:

Sum of the angles around a given point is 360°.

[tex]x + x + 72 + 90 + 111 =360 \\ 2x + 273 = 360 \\2x = 360 - 273 \\ 2x = 87 \\ x = \frac{87}{2} \\ \boxed{x = 43.5°}✓[/tex]

★ x=43.5° is the right answer.
