the sum of two numbers is 40.if the greater number is 8 more than the smaller one , find the numbers

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

16

Step-by-step explanation:

let the smaller no be x so the greater no is 8 + x

soln

8+x + x = 40

8 + 2x = 40

2x = 40-8

2x = 32

x = 32÷2

therefore x = 16

Answer 2

Answer:

16 and 24

Step-by-step explanation:

let the 2 numbers be x and y, x > y , then

x + y = 40 → (1)

x = y + 8 → (2) [ greater number 8 more than smaller ]

Substitute x = y + 8 into (1)

y + 8 + y = 40, that is

2y + 8 = 40 ( subtract 8 from both sides )

2y = 32 ( divide both sides by 2 )

y = 16

Substitute y = 16 into (2)

x = 16 + 8 = 24

The 2 numbers are 16 and 24

Traveling 10 meters in 1/3 of a second how fast was it going

Answers

Answer:

I guess he was traveling 30 meters every second.

(Which is pretty slow to be honest)

Step-by-step explanation:

This question doesn't really make sense since it says it right there he traveled 10 meters in 1/3 of a second. But I'm guessing that you want to find out how many meters per second.

Since 1/3 multiplied by 3 = 1

Then 10 multiplied by 3 = 30.

So, he traveled 30 meters every second.

The cost of a sweater at a clothing store was $35. The sweater went on sale at a discount of 20% off the original price. What is the sale price of the sweater?

Answers

The answer is 28$ :))

Answer:

$28

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we have to find 20% of 35.

We can do that by multiplying 0.20 by 35. (0.20 x 35)

After multiplying them, we get a product of $7.

Since the sweater went on sale and they took 20% off of the original price, we have to subtract $7 from the original price of $35. (35 - 7)

We can solve that to get us the discounted price of $28

g(x) = 2x - 4

Find (g - h)(-4)

Answers

Answer:   -10

=============================================

Work Shown:

(g-h)(x) = g(x) - h(x)

(g-h)(x) = (2x-4) - (x+2)

(g-h)(x) = 2x-4 - x - 2

(g-h)(x) = x - 6

(g-h)(-4) = -4 - 6

(g-h)(-4) = -10

--------------------

An alternative method:

g(x) = 2x-4

g(-4) = 2(-4)-4

g(-4) = -8-4

g(-4) = -12

h(x) = x+2

h(-4) = -4+2

h(-4) = -2

(g-h)(-4) = g(-4) - h(-4)

(g-h)(-4) = -12 - (-2)

(g-h)(-4) = -12 + 2

(g-h)(-4) = -10

Alright so this problem is like that other one i did where line RQx2 is equal to line SU

First we set up an equation

x+3=x-2

because line RQ is only 1/2 of line SU we multiple its side by 2 to get the new equation of

x+3=2x-4

step 1 subtract each side by 2x

-1x+3=-4

step 2 subtract each side by 3

-1x=-7

divide each side by -1

x=7

Next we plug in x (7) so 7-2=5
