The difference between two integers is at most 16. the smaller integer is 12. what is the larger integer

1 answer:

3 0

The difference between two integers is at most 16
x1 - big integer
x2- small integer
$x_1 -x_2 \leq 16$

the smaller integer is 12
so
x2 = 12

substitution

 $x_1 -12 \leq 16$

solve for x1

however, note the fact larger
thus meaning
x1 > x2 applies to this problem

Can somebody help me solve for x?

Dahasolnce [82]

Let y = the distance between the top left corner and the bottom right corner

y^2 = 24^2 + 15^2

y^2 = 801

y = 3 * sqrt(89)

Now we can find x.

12^2 + x^2 = (3 * sqrt(89))^2

x^2 = 657

x = 3 * sqrt(73) or 25.63

Combine the following fractions. a. 3/5 + 4/15 b. 5/6 - 1/4

Ne4ueva [31]

Hello there! :)

Answer:

1. $\boxed{\frac{13}{15} }$

2. $\boxed{\frac{7}{12} }$

Step-by-step explanation:

1. 3/5+4/15

First, you multiply by numerator and denominator.

3*3=9

5*3=15

$=\frac{9}{15}$

Then, you had to combine by the fractions.

$\frac{9}{15}+\frac{4}{15}$

Add by the numbers from left to right.

9+4=13

13/15 is the final answer.

______________________________________________

2. 5/6-1/4

First, you multiply by 2 both sides of numerator and denominator.

5*2=10

6*2=12

10/12

3/12

$\frac{10}{12}-\frac{3}{12}$

Subtract by the numerator.

10-3=7

7/12 is the final answer.

Hope this helps!

Thanks!

Have a nice day! :)
