One number is 4 more than another, and their sum is 60. What is the smaller number?



If x = the larger number and y = the smaller number, then which of the following systems could be used to solve the problem?

x + y = 60 and -x + y = 4
x + y = 60 and x + y = 4
x + y = 60 and x - y = 4
Unlimited Attempts Remain

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The system is

x+y=60 and x-y=4

If we get the difference between the two equations above we get

x+y-x+y=60-4

2y=56

y=28

Answers

Answer:

2.4 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

We know the length of segment AB and the length of segment BC. To find their midpoints, we can divide their length by 2.

Let's find the midpoint of AB.

Segment AB: 10 cm Midpoint of AB: 10/2 = 5 cm

Next let's find the midpoint of BC.

Segment BC: 5.2 cmMidpoint of BC: 5.2/2 = 2.6 cm

In order to find the difference between these midpoints, we can subtract the midpoint of AB by the midpoint of BC.

5 cm - 2.6 cm = 2.4 cm

Therefore, the difference between the midpoints of AB and BC is 2.4 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

A bag contains 5 red marbles, 6 blue marbles, 3 green marbles, 4 black marbles, and 2 yellow marbles. A marble will be drawn from the bag and replaced 100 times. What is a reasonable prediction for the number of times a green or black marble will be drawn?

A quick lesson on probability:

The probability of an event is: (the number of ways what you want can happen) / (total number of outcomes possible). For example, in a coin flip, there is 1 way to get heads, and 2 possible outcomes. Thus, the possiblity  of flipping a coin and getting heads is:

(1 way to get heads) / (2 possible outcomes) = 1/2

Then, if we were to flip the coin 100 times, we would expect about 1/2 of the times to be heads, so we should expect heads 50 times.  

On to the problem.

There are 3 green marbles and 4 black marbles, so there are 7 ways to draw a green or black marble.

Then, there are 5 + 6 + 3 + 4 + 2 = 20 possible outcomes.

Using the formula to find the probability, substitute the values we just found.

(the number of ways what you want can happen) / (total number of outcomes possible) =

(7 ways to draw a green or black marble) / (20 marbles that can be drawn) = 7/20 chance of getting a green or black marble.

Then, because there is a 7/20 chance of getting what we want, and there are 100 draws, we can say that an we should get green or black

7/20 * 100 = 35 times, or D

Answers

Answer:

Option A. x = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Please see attached photo.

From the attached photo,

we shall determine the value of y. This can be obtained by using pythagoras theory as illustrated below:

(√80)² = 8² + y²

80 = 64 + y²

Collect like terms

80 – 64 = y²

16 = y²

Take the square root of both side

y = √16

y = 4

Finally, we shall determine the value of x. This can be obtained as follow:

From the attached photo,

x = 2y

but:

y = 4

Therefore,

x = 2y

x = 2 × 4

x = 8

Answer:

The missing angle is 40 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Tan = opposite / adjacent

Tan ? = 24 / 29

24 / 29 = 0.8275

Tan-1 of 0.8275 is 39.610

Round to the nearest degree

39.610 = 40

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Here you have a right triangle with the side lengths 24 and 29 and are asked to find the measure of the smallest angle.

In cases like this you should ask yourself which trig function includes the lengths of the legs (that is, the lengths of the side opposite the angle and the side adjacent to the angle).  That would be the tangent function, and so:

tan (?) = (opposite side) / (adjacent side)

Here, tan x = 24/29 = 0.691.  Note:  I used my TI-83Plus calculator to determine that the measure of angle x in radians is 0.691.

The unknown angle is 0.691 radians, or (multiplying that by the conversion factor (180/pi) ) 39.6 degrees.  To the nearest degree, that'd be 40 degrees.
