The sum of two numbers is 80. The larger number is four more than three times the smaller number. Find both numbers.

Let the smaller number = X

Then the larger number is 3x+4 ( four more than 3 times the smaller number)


The sum of both numbers = 80

so you have X + 3X+4 = 80

Simplify the left side:

4x+4 = 80

Subtract 4 from each side:

4x = 76

Divide both sides by 4:

X = 76/4

X = 19

The smallest number is 19

The largest number is 80 - 19 = 61 ( check: 3*19 = 57+4 = 61)


The two numbers are 19 and 61

If two or more polygons are congruent, which statement must be true about the polygons? Read all of the choices before deciding.
hodyreva [135]
The best correct answer is option E. If two or more polygons are congruent, then rigid transformations can be used to map one polygon onto the other. <span>Two figures are said to be congruent when they have the same shape and size or if one object is a mirror image of the other object.</span>

By visual inspection determine the best-fitting regression model for the data plot below
Pie

Answer:

Exponential

Step-by-step explanation:

By visual inspection the graph generated by the points plotted is an exponential graph as the graph curves upward. The graph is also continous and differs from either a decreasing or increasing Linear graph, which shows a straight best of fit pattern. Hence, the graph most closely represents an exponential graph from visual examination.

Poor Milhouse is hopelessly in love with Lisa. Unfortunately for Milhouse, Lisa does not feel the same way. However, Milhouse re
rewona [7]

Answer:

15.6%

Step-by-step explanation:

Since each day there is a 6% chance that Lisa smiles at him then that means that each day there is a 94% chance that Lisa does not smile at him. To find the probability of Milhouse going longer than a month (30 days) without a smile from Lisa we need to multiply this percentage in decimal form for every day of the month. This can be solved easily by putting 94% to the 30th power which would be the same, but first, we need to turn it into a decimal...

94% / 100 = 0.94

0.94^{30} = 0.156

Now we can turn this decimal into a percentage by multiplying by 100

0.156 * 100 = 15.6%

Finally, we can see that the probability that Milhouse goes longer than a month without a smile from Lisa is 15.6%

A boat takes twice as long to travel 5 km upstream as it does travel 3km downstream in a river that flows at a rate of 2 kph. At
Fittoniya [83]

Answer: 22 kph

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

distance (d) = rate (r) x time (t)

UPSTREAM: d = 5 km,   r = *x - y,  y = 2 kph,   t = 2t

DOWNSTREAM: d = 3 k,  r = *x + y,   y = 2 kph,   t = t

*x is the speed in still water and y is the current of the water.

Upstream equation:       5 = 2t(x - 2)   -->    \dfrac{5}{2(x-2)}=t

Downstream equation:  3 = t(x + 2)     -->    \dfrac{3}{x+2}=t

Set the equations equal to each other to solve for x:

\dfrac{5}{2(x-2)}=\dfrac{3}{x+2}\\\\\\\text{Cross multiply:}\\5(x+2)=3\cdot2(x-2)\\\\\text{Distribute:}\\5x+10=6x-12\\\\\text{Isolate x:}\\10=x-12\\22=x
