Che sum of two numbers is 2. If one number is subtracted from the other, their difference is - 8. Find the numbeRs

Answers

Answer 1
I wanna say 10 or ether -10 since if it was subtracted from 2 then it would equal -8
Answer 2

Answer:

1st number (x) = -3, 2nd number (y) = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

x + y = 2, y = 2 - x

x - y = -8, y = x + 8

By substituting y = 2 - x in the other equation:

(2 - x) = x + 8

2 - 8 = x + x

-6 = 2x

x = -3

Now plug x = -3 into either equation:

y = 2 - x

y = 2 - (-3) = 5

So the numbers are -3, 5

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Note:

The text below that are formatted in bold and underlined font are the solutions to the missing boxes in your given problem.  

Explanation:

Given that ∠1, ∠2, ∠3, and ∠4 are formed by two intersecting segments, and that:

∠1 and  ∠2 form a linear pair  

∠2 and ∠3 form a linear pair  

These linear pair relationships suggest that by the Linear Pair Postulate:

∠1 and ∠2 are supplementary.    ⇒  Linear Pair Postulate

∠2 and ∠3 are supplementary.    ⇒  Linear Pair Postulate

m∠2 + m∠ 3 = 180°  ⇒  Definition of supplementary angles.

m∠1 + m∠3  = m∠2 + m∠ 3  ⇒  Substitution Property of Equality.          

m∠1  =  m∠3   ⇒  Subtraction Property of Equality.  

A motorboat is capable of traveling at a speed of 14 miles per hour in still water. On a particular day, it took 15 minutes longer to travel a distance of 12 miles
upstream than it took to travel the same distance downstream. What was the rate of current in the stream on that day?

Answers

By solving a system of equations we will find that the rate of current in the stream is S = 2 mi/h.

When the motorboat travels downstream, the total velocity will be the velocity of the motorboat in still water plus the velocity of the stream, while if the motorboat travels upstream, we have the velocity of the stream subtracted.

So upstream the speed is:

(14 mi/h - S)

Downstream the speed is:

(14 mi/h + S)

Where S is the rate of current in the stream.

We know that downstream it takes 15 minutes more to travel 12 miles, then we can write the system of equations:

(14 mi/h + S)*T = 12 mi

(14 mi/h - S)*(T - 15 min) = 12 mi

To solve this, we need to isolate one of the variables in one of the equations, I will isolate T in the first one:

T = (12 mi)/(14 mi/h + S)

Replacing that in the other equation we will get:

(14 mi/h - S)*((12 mi)/(14 mi/h + S) - 15 min) = 12 mi

Now we can solve this for S. Now we can multiply both sides by (14 mi/h + S).

(14 mi/h - S)*12 mi  - (14 mi/h + S)*(14 mi/h - S)*(- 15 min) = 12 mi*(14 mi/h + S)

Also notice that the speeds are in hours, so we can rewrite:

- 15 min = -0.25 h

(14 mi/h - S)*12 mi  - (14 mi/h + S)*(14 mi/h - S)*(- 0.25 h) = 12 mi*(14 mi/h + S)

168 mi^2/h - 12mi*S  + 49mi^2/h + 0.25h*S^2 = 168mi^2/h + 12mi*S

- 12mi*S  + 49mi^2/h - 0.25h*S^2 = 12mi*S

-24mi*S -  0.25h*S^2  + 49mi^2/h = 0

This is a quadratic equation, the solutions are:

[tex]S = \frac{24mi \pm \sqrt{(-24mi)^2 - 4*(49mi^2/h)*(-0.25h)} }{2*-0.25h} \\\\S = \frac{24mi \pm 25 mi }{-0.5h}[/tex]

We only take the positive solution, so we get:

S = (24 mi - 25 mi)/(-0.5 mi) = 2 mi/h

The rate of current in the stream is 2 mi/h.

A car is being compacted into a rectangular solid. The volume is decreasing at a rate of 2 m3/sec. The length and width of the compactor are square, but the height is not the same length as the length and width. If the length and width walls move toward each other at a rate of 0.25 m/ sec, find the rate at which the height is changing when the length and width are 2 m and the height is 1.5 m.

Answers

Using implicit differentiation, it is found that the height is changing at a rate of -0.875 m/sec.

The volume of a rectangular solid of length l, width w and height h is given by:

[tex]V = lwh[/tex]

Applying implicit differentiation, the rate of change of the volume is given by:

[tex]\frac{dV}{dt} = wh\frac{dl}{dt} + lh\frac{dw}{dt} + lw\frac{dh}{dt}[/tex]

In this problem:

Volume is decreasing at a rate of 2 m3/sec, hence [tex]\frac{dV}{dt} = -2[/tex]The length and width walls move toward each other at a rate of 0.25 m/ sec, hence [tex]\frac{dl}{dt} = \frac{dw}{dt} = 0.25[/tex]Length and width are 2 m and the height is 1.5 m, hence [tex]l = w = 2, h = 1.5[/tex]

Then:

[tex]\frac{dV}{dt} = wh\frac{dl}{dt} + lh\frac{dw}{dt} + lw\frac{dh}{dt}[/tex]

[tex]-2  = 2(1.5)(0.25) + 2(1.5)(0.25) + 2(2)\frac{dh}{dt}[/tex]

[tex]4\frac{dh}{dt} = -3.5[/tex]

[tex]\frac{dh}{dt} = -\frac{3.5}{4}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{dh}{dt} = -0.875[/tex]

The height is changing at a rate of -0.875 m/sec.

Step-by-step explanation:

A table is on sale for 32% off. The sale price is $459.
What is the regular price?

Answers

the regular price is "x", which of course is the 100%, but we also know that $459 is 32% off that, hmmmmm well 100% - 32% = 68%, so $459 is really 68% of "x", because $459 is whatever "x" is minus 32%.

[tex]\begin{array}{ccll} amount&\%\\ \cline{1-2} x&100\\ 459&68 \end{array}\implies \cfrac{x}{459}=\cfrac{100}{68}\implies \cfrac{x}{459}=\cfrac{25}{17} \\\\\\ 17x = 11475\implies x = \cfrac{11475}{17}\implies x = 675[/tex]

$675 is the regular price. $459 is 68% of the original price. (100-32=68). To find the original price you would do 459 divided by 0.68 and would get 675. To check that you would do 675 times 0.68 and would get 459. I hope this helps

ABC ≃DEF. Find the lengths of the given sides

Answers

Answer:

BC = 8 and EF = 8.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since triangle ABC and DEF are congruent to each other, BC corresponds with EF (as determined by the triangle names).

Set BC and EF equal to each other.

x + 6 = 3x + 2

Subtract x from both sides.

6 = 2x + 2

Subtract 2 from both sides.

4 = 2x.

Divide 2 on both sides.

x = 2.

Substitute 2 for x.

BC = 2 + 6

BC = 8

Since we already know that EF is congruent to BC, EF is also 8.

EC = 3(2) + 2

EC = 6 + 2

EC = 8
