the difference of two numbers is 7. Three times the greater number is 72. find the numbers​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]\huge\boxed{\tt{x = 24, y = 17}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the greater number be x and the smaller number be y.

So,

Condition # 1:

x - y = 7 --------------(1)

Condition # 2:

3x = 72 --------------(2)

Taking Eq. (2)

3x = 72

Divide both sides by 3

x = 72 / 3

x = 24

Now, Put x = 24 in Eq. (1)

24 - y = 7

Subtract 24 to both sides

-y = 7 - 24

-y = -17

y = 17

Find the solution(s) to the system of equations below:
3x - 5y = 3 and y = 3x2 - 4x + 1

Answers

Answer:

1,0

8/15,-7/25

Step-by-step explanation:

3x - 5y = 3

5y = 3x-3

y = (3x-3)/5

y= 3x² -4x +1

or, (3x-3)/5 = 3x²-4x +1

or, 3x-3 = 15x²-20x+5

or, 15x² - 23x +8 =0

or, 15x² - (15+8)x +8 =0

or, 15x² - 15x -8x +8 = 0

or, 15x (x - 1) -8(x-1) =0

or, (x-1)(15x-8)=0

Either,

x-1=0

x = 1

when x=1,

y= 0

or,

15x-8=0

x=8/15

when x= 8/15,

y= -7/25

last problem had the wrong photo so heres the right one

Answers

Answer:

J

Step-by-step explanation:

1. y = mx + c ( equation of a straight line,where "c" is the y intercept, i.e, the y co-oridnate of where it cuts the y-axis)

2. It is now clear to see that the value of "c", the y co-ordinate of the point of intercept is 3, eliminating F and G as options

3. Substitute a given point into the equation y = mx + 3 to solve for "m", the gradient. I chose (3; 1) as it is the only visible point that lies on the straight line

4. Solve for "m" algebraically and you'll find that the gradient is -2/3

5. Substitute "m" back into the equation and you'll find that your equation is y = -2/3x + 3 or J

ALTERNATIVELY:

You could just find the value of "c" as stipulated above, which would leave you with H and J as options. But since you know the coefficient of x in the equation is the gradient, you can just tell by looking at the line whether or not it will have a positive or negative gradient. The gradient is negative since the line is sloping downwards, so you're only option is J.

2 hours 20 minutes. The other movie
starts in 1 day 4 hours 10 minutes. The
later movie starts at 5:00 P.M. At what
time does the earlier movie start?

Answers

Answer:

The earlier movie starts at 1610 (4:10 PM)

Step-by-step explanation:

The later movie starts at 1700 (5:00 PM), and is in 1 day, 4 hours and 10 minutes. That means the time is __:50. Additionally, it's in 4 hours. 1700 - 400 = 1300 (1:00 PM). Now we know the time is 1350 (1:50 PM) presently.

If it's currently 1:50 PM, and the earlier movie starts 2 hours from this time tomorrow, then it begins at 1350 + 200 = 1550 (3:50PM). Take into account that there's also another 20 minutes before the movie commences, it will be 1610 (4:10 PM).

Good luck!!

Melissa and Robbie are flying remote control gliders.

The altitude of Melissa's glider, h(s), in feet, is modeled by this function, where sis time, in seconds, after launch.


The altitude of Robbie's glider is modeled by function r, where sis time, in seconds, after launch.

Answers

Answer:

C. Robbie's glider

Step-by-step explanation:

P.S -The exact question is -

Given - Melissa and Robbie are flying remote control gliders.

The altitude of Melissa's glider, h(s), in feet, is modeled by this function, where sis time, in seconds, after launch.

m(s) = 0.4(s³ - 11s² + 31s – 1)

The altitude of Robbie's glider is modeled by function r, where sis time, in seconds, after launch.

To find - Which glider reaches the greater maximum altitude in the first 6 seconds after launch?

A. Neither glider reaches a maximum altitude on the given interval.

В. Melissa's glider

C. Robbie's glider

D. Both gliders reach the same altitude on the given interval.

Proof -

At t = 6 sec,

Melisa glider is

h(6) = 0.4((0.6)³ - 11(0.6)² + 31(0.6) – 1)

      = 0.4( 0.216 - 3.96 + 18.6 - 1 )

      = 0.4(13.856) = 5.5424

⇒h(6) = 5.5424

∴ we get

At t = 6 seconds, Melissa glider is at the altitude of 5.54 feet

Now,

From the figure, we can see that,

At t = 6 seconds, Robbie's glider is approximately at an altitude of 13 feet

Now,

As 13 > 5.5

So,

Robbie's glider is at maximum height in 6 seconds after the launch.

So,

The correct option is - C. Robbie's glider
