3. The sum of two numbers is 17. The difference between the larger number and the
smaller number is 7. What is the value of the smaller number?


Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, we need to set up a system of equations. Let x represent the larger number and y represent the smaller number.

x + y = 17

x - y = 7

We can solve this system by adding them together. The y cancels out because y + (-y) = 0. After that, we solve for x

2x = 24          

x = 12              (Divide both sides by 2)

Now that we know the value of x, we can substitute it into one of our original equations to solve for y.

12 + y = 17      

y = 5                (Subtract 12 from both sides)

So, the smaller number is 5.

67

Step-by-step explanation:

A. Total marks scored by Harman = maths + science + English + history + Sanskrit

= 86 + 74 + 67 + 56 + 89

= 372

Total marks scored by Harman = 372

B. Average scored by Harman = Total marks scored by Harman / Number of subject

= 372 / 5

= 74.4

Average scored by Harman = 74.4

C. Highest score obtained for science = Disk ha

= 87

D. Lowest score obtained by Ankur = science and Sanskrit

= 67

He scored the same mark in both science and Sanskrit

Lowest score obtained by Ankur = 67

A coffee shop sells a coffee refill mug for $6.75. Each refill costs $1.25. Last month Kim spent $31.75 on a mug and refills. Write an equation you can use to find the number of refills Kim bought. How many refills did Kim buy?

Answers

Answer:

equation: x(1.25) + 6.75 = 31.75 refills: 20

Step-by-step explanation:

The mug costs $6.75, and you aren't buying multiple cups, so that number stays the same. The number of refills is "x" since we do not know the amount. Next to "x" we multiply 1.25 for the cost of each refill. So now we have "x(1.25)" then we add $6.75 to the equation, for the mug price. Along with the total at the end. To which we now have "x(1.25) + 6.75 = 31.75"

Now we solve the equation. First, subtract 6.75 from each side

x(1.25) + 6.25 = 31.75

            -6.25    -6.25

Now we have "x(1.25) = 25" So we have to divide each side by 1.25

x(1.25/1.25) = 25/1.25

                x = 20

Therefore, Kim bought 20 refills. To check our work we can replace x with 20 in the original equation.

20(1.25) + 6.75 = 31.75

        25 + 6.75 = 31.75

                31.75 = 31.75
