Algebra.Com's Answer #168281 by drj(1380)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! One number exceeds another number by 32. The sum of the numbers is 82. What are the numbers?\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Step 1. Let n be one number \r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Step 2. Let n+32 be the other number since it exceeds the number n by 32.\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Step 3. Then n+n+32=82 since the sum of the numbers is 82.\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Step 4. Solving will yield the following steps\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Subtract 32 from both sides of the equation\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Divide by 2 to both sides of the equation\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Step 5. ANSWER: The numbers are 25 and 57.\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "I hope the above steps were helpful.\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "For FREE Step-By-Step videos in Introduction to Algebra, please visit http://www.FreedomUniversity.TV/courses/IntroAlgebra and for Trigonometry visit http://www.FreedomUniversity.TV/courses/Trigonometry.\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "And good luck in your studies!\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Respectfully, \n" ); document.write( "Dr J\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "http://www.FreedomUniversity.TV \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
