One number is 24 more than the other. What are the numbers if their sum is 84

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The required numbers are 30 and 54.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 'x' be the smaller numberLet 'y' be the larger number

Given that one number is 24 more than the other, so

[tex]y = x + 24[/tex]

Given that the sum of the numbers is 84, so

[tex]x + y = 84[/tex]

so we have two equations

[tex]\begin{bmatrix}y=x+24\\ x+y=84\end{bmatrix}[/tex]

Arrange equation variables for elimination

[tex]\begin{bmatrix}y-x=24\\ y+x=84\end{bmatrix}[/tex]

subtracting the equartions

[tex]y+x=84[/tex]

[tex]-[/tex]

[tex]\underline{y-x=24}[/tex]

[tex]2x=60[/tex]

now solve 2x = 60 for x

[tex]2x=60[/tex]

Divide both sides by 2

[tex]\frac{2x}{2}=\frac{60}{2}[/tex]

Simplify

[tex]x=30[/tex]

For y - x = 24 plug in x = 30

[tex]y-30=24[/tex]

Add 30 to both sides

[tex]y-30+30=24+30[/tex]

Simplify

[tex]y=54[/tex]

Thus, the required numbers are 30 and 54.

Verification:

Given that one number is 24 more than the other, so

[tex]y = x + 24[/tex]

substitute x = 30

y = 30 + 24

y = 54

Thus, y is 24 more than x.

Given that the sum of the numbers is 84, so

[tex]x + y = 84[/tex]

sustitute x = 30 and y = 54

30 + 54 = 84

84 = 84

L.H.S = R.H.S

Thus,  the sum of the numbers is indeed 84.

Given a right triangle ABC, if the measure of angle A is 77', and cos (77) = sin(0).
what is the value of 0 ?

Answers

Answer:  Theta = 13 degrees

==========================================================

Rule:

If cos(A) = sin(B), then A+B = 90

This can be proven through the use of drawing a right triangle with acute angles A and B. Let's say C is the 90 degree angle.

Then note how cos(A) = adjacent/hypotenuse = AC/AB while sin(B) = opposite/hypotenuse = AC/AB. We see that both evaluate to AC/AB. So this confirms cos(A) = sin(B) is true.

The condition that A+B = 90 is from from the fact that any pair of acute angles of a right triangle are complementary angles.

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

Using that rule, we can say

cos(77) = sin(theta)

leads to

77+theta = 90

and that solves to

theta = 90-77 = 13

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]a_n = 2n[/tex]

Required

Prove that [tex]S_n = n(n+1)[/tex]

The given sequence is an arithmetic sequence.

The Sn of this sequence is:

[tex]S_n = \frac{n}{2}(a_1 + a_n)[/tex]

Calculate a1

[tex]a_n =2n[/tex]

[tex]a_1 =2*1[/tex]

[tex]a_1 =2[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]S_n = \frac{n}{2}(a_1 + a_n)[/tex]

[tex]S_n = \frac{n}{2}(2 + 2n)[/tex]

Factor out 2

[tex]S_n = \frac{n*2}{2}(1 + n)[/tex]

In triangle ABC, one angle measures 68°, another measures 19°, what is the measure of the third angle? *

Answers

Answer:

93°

Step-by-step explanation:

In triangle ABC

one angle = 68°

Another angle = 19°

Let the third angle be X Then

x + 68° + 19° = 180° { being sum of angles of triangle }

x = 180° - 87°

x = 93°

The measure of the third Angle is 93°

A new medical test has been designed to detect the presence of the mysterious Brainlesserian disease. Among those who have the disease, the probability that the disease will be detected by the new test is 0.7. However, the probability that the test will erroneously indicate the presence of the disease in those who do not actually have it is 0.08. It is estimated that 18 % of the population who take this test have the disease.
You may want to construct a table as in your course materials. Use a population of 10,000 people.If the test administered to an individual is positive, what is the probability that the person actually has the disease?Express your answer rounded correctly to three decimal places.

Answers

Solution :

It is given that :

P (positive | Has disease) = 0.7

P (positive | No disease) = 0.08

P (has disease) = 0.18

P (No disease) = 1 - 0.18

                        = 0.82

Now if test administered to the individual is positive, the probability that the person actually have the disease is

P (Has disease | positive)  [tex]$=\frac{P(\text{positive}| \text{has positive}) \times P(\text{Has disease})}{P(\text{positive})}$[/tex]  ......(1)

The P(positive) is,

[tex]$P(\text{positive}) = P(\text{positive} \cap \text{Has disease})+P(\text{positive} \cap \text{No disease})$[/tex]

                = P(positive | has disease) x P(Has disease) + P(positive | no disease) x P(No disease)

                 = 0.7 (0.19) + 0.04 (0.81)

                = 0.1654

Now substituting the values in the equation (1), we get

P (Has disease | positive)  [tex]$=\frac{P(\text{positive}| \text{has positive}) \times P(\text{Has disease})}{P(\text{positive})}$[/tex]  

                                           [tex]$=\frac{0.7(0.19)}{0.1654}$[/tex]

                                          = 0.8041

Answers

Answer:

where k is the proportionality  constant

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

The number of people who are infected with the flu = x(t)

Total number of students = 1000

So,

Total number of student who do not expose with the flue = 1000 - x(t)

As given,

We have to find the differential equation such that

The rate at which the disease spreads is proportional to the number of interactions between the number of students who have the flu and the number of students show have not been exposed to it.

⇒[tex]\frac{dx}{dt}[/tex] ∝ x(t) . [ 1000 - x(t) ]
