Answer:

40 and 89

Step-by-step explanation:

let x be the number then the other number is 2x + 9, then

x + 2x + 9 = 129, that is

3x + 9 = 129 ( subtract 9 from both sides )

3x = 120 ( divide both sides by 3 )

x = 40

Thus the numbers are

x = 40 and 2x + 9 = 2(40) + 9 = 80 + 9 = 89

hjlf

Answer:

An equilateral triangle

Step-by-step explanation:

Because an equilateral has a feature that all sides have the same length and all angles are of the same, it does not matter from which side and peak the centroid, circumcenter, incenter and orthocenter is created, they would always end up at the same point.

babymother [125]

Answer:

(B)1005 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

In the attached diagram

$\angle y =82^\circ\\\angle x =60^\circ$

|AG|=1400 feet

Distance from point C to point G=|CG|

Using Trigonometry in Triangle ACG

$\tan 60^\circ=\dfrac{1400}{CG}\\ CG=\dfrac{1400}{\tan 60^\circ}\\\approx 808$ feet$

Using Trigonometry in Triangle BCG'

$\tan 82^\circ=\dfrac{1400}{CG'}\\ CG'=\dfrac{1400}{\tan 82^\circ}\\\approx 197$ feet$

Therefore, the distance from balloon B from balloon A

=CG+CG'

=808+197

=1005 feet

For the month of June, Mae Green budgeted the following amounts: $180 for food, $475 for rent, $15 for transportation, $50 for i

ycow [4]

Question 1

Total budget = 180 + 475 + 15 + 50 + 65 + 25 + 150 + 30 = $990
Real spending = 182 + 475 + 12 + 65 + 68 + 12.50 + 150 + 36 = $1000.5

Mae Green didn't stay within the allocated budget

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

Question 2

Eleanor:
Income = 380.48
Spending = 16.50

Peter:
Income = 120 + 13.65 + 100 = 233.65

Total income = 233.65 + 380.48 - 16.50 = 597.63

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

Question 3

Total spent = 540 + 48.55 + 34.15 + 12.80 + 18.95 + 38.60 + 2 + 6.50 = 701.55

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

Question 4

Marie's new balance = 250.65 - [21.95+48.50+75.60] + 55 = $159.50

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

Question 5

[235/825] × 100 = 28.48%
