Algebra.Com's Answer #197298 by ankor@dixie-net.com(22740) You can put this solution on YOUR website! I think this problem should read: \n" ); document.write( "; \n" ); document.write( "\"When the digits of a two-digit number are reversed, the number is 9 more than the original number, and the sum of the digits of the original number is 11. \n" ); document.write( " What is the original number?\" \n" ); document.write( ": \n" ); document.write( "Let x = the 10's digit \n" ); document.write( "Let y = the units \n" ); document.write( "the \n" ); document.write( "10x + y = \"the original two digit number \n" ); document.write( ": \n" ); document.write( "\"When the digits of a two-digit number are reversed, the number is 9 more than the original number,\" \n" ); document.write( "10y + x = 10x + y + 9 \n" ); document.write( "10y - y = 10x - x + 9 \n" ); document.write( "9y = 9x + 9 \n" ); document.write( "Simplify divide by 9 \n" ); document.write( "y = x + 1 \n" ); document.write( ": \n" ); document.write( "\"the sum of the digits of the original number is 11. \n" ); document.write( "x + y = 11 \n" ); document.write( "Replace y with (x+1) \n" ); document.write( "x + x + 1 = 11 \n" ); document.write( "2x = 11-1 \n" ); document.write( "x = 5 \n" ); document.write( "then \n" ); document.write( "y = 5 + 1 = 6 \n" ); document.write( ": \n" ); document.write( "56 is the original number \n" ); document.write( "; \n" ); document.write( ": \n" ); document.write( "Check solution in the statement: \n" ); document.write( "\"the digits of a two-digit number are reversed, the number is 9 more than the original number,\" \n" ); document.write( "65 = 56 + 9\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
