Two numbers have a sum of 136 and a difference of 32. Find the smaller of the two numbers.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Smaller number = x

Bigger number = x +32

Why? -- the difference of the numbers is 32, this also means that one number is 32 greater than the other.

x + x+32 = 136

2x +32 = 136

2x = 104

x = 104/2

x = 52

----> The smaller number is 52  <-----

We can check by solving for the bigger number.

Bigger number = x+32

x = 52

52 + 32 = 84

Bigger number = 84

Bigger number + Smaller number = 136

84 + 52 = 136

Answer 2

The numbers are 84 and 52 if the two numbers have a sum of 136 and a difference of 32.

What is a linear equation?

It is defined as the relation between two variables, if we plot the graph of the linear equation we will get a straight line.

If in the linear equation, one variable is present, then the equation is known as the linear equation in one variable.

It is given that:

Two numbers have a sum of 136 and a difference of 32

Let x be the first number and y be the second number:

x + y = 136

x - y = 32

After solving the above linear equation by elimination method:

2x = 168

x = 168/2

x = 84

2y  = 104

y = 52

Thus, the numbers are 84 and 52 if the two numbers have a sum of 136 and a difference of 32.

Answers

Answer:

your slope would be 5/4

Step-by-step explanation:

your x will always be your slope. when you rewrite the equation it would be

y=5/4x-7

so from -7 you would go up 5 and over 4.

Again your x value will always be your slope.

A canteen spends money on food and drink in the ratio of 29:3
In total, they spend £6496.
Find how much money they spend on drink.​

Answers

Answer:

Money spend on drink  = £ 609

Step-by-step explanation:

Food : drink = 29 : 3

Money spend on food = 29x

Money spend on drink = 3x

Total money spend = 29x + 3x = 32x

32x = £6496

   x = 6496/32

  x = £ 203

Money spend on drink = 3x = 3 * 203 = £ 609

Hi there! Your answer will be 45 Degrees,

This is because when the top line is facing C in this case and the bottom line is facing B it would be a 90° angle. Due to it being less than 90°, and it can not be a decimal your only choice would be 45°.

The only reason it is not 180° is because when 180° is shown it will go from A to B and show a straight line.

Answer:

[tex]a_{n}[/tex] = 4n + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a common difference d between consecutive terms in the sequence.

d = 12 - 8 = 16 - 12 = 20 - 16 = 4

This indicates the sequence is arithmetic with n th term

[tex]a_{n}[/tex] = a₁ + (n - 1)d

where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference

Here a₁ = 8 and d = 4 , then

[tex]a_{n}[/tex] = 8 + 4(n - 1) = 8 + 4n - 4 = 4n + 4
