the smaller number is 13 and the larger one is 18.

Let's say that the smaller number is x and the larger one is y.

Giving the equation x + 5 = y

This would also make the equation y^2-x^2= 155

to solve let's simplify to find what y^2 is in x terms.

y^2 = (x+5) (x+5) = x^2 +10x + 25.

therefore x^2 + 10x + 25 -x^2= 155

10x + 25 = 155

10x = 130

x = 13

y = 18

Explain how knowing 1+7 helps you find the sum for 7+1
kakasveta [241]

We can use the concept of commutative property of addition here. We know that the addition follow the commutative property.

The commutative property of addition is given by

a+b=b+a

It means, if we change the order, it will not affect the result.

Therefore, using above mentioned property, we can see that

1+7 = 7+1

Hence, if we know the value of 1+7, then we can easily find the value of 7+1 because both are same.

Answer:

A reflection followed by a translation

Step-by-step explanation:

A reflection across they x-axis would put all the points in the right section and on the right y value. The x value would need to be changed though. So, you would need to do a translation of 4 on all points.

Ray Of Light [21]

Answer: 0.0062

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The weight of trucks traveling on a particular section of I-475 have a population mean of \mu=15.8 tons and a population standard deviation of \sigma=4.2 tons.

Sample size : n=49

Let x be the random variable that represents the weight of trucks .

z-score : z=\dfrac{x-\mu}{\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}

For x= 14.3 tons

z=\dfrac{14.3-15.8}{\dfrac{4.2}{\sqrt{49}}}\approx-2.5

Now, the probability a state highway inspector could select a sample of 49 trucks and find the sample mean to be 14.3 tons or less will be :-

P(X\leq14.3)=P(z

Hence, the probability a state highway inspector could select a sample of 49 trucks and find the sample mean to be 14.3 tons or less =0.0062
