For a particular two digit number, the value of the number is 9 more than when the digits are reversed. In fact, if you add 4 to the first digit it is the same as doubling the second digit. \n" ); document.write( "---------------- \n" ); document.write( "Let the number be 10t+u \n" ); document.write( "----- \n" ); document.write( "Equations: \n" ); document.write( "10t+u = 10u+t + 9 \n" ); document.write( "t+4 = 2u \n" ); document.write( "------------------- \n" ); document.write( "Substitute for \"t\" and solve for \"u\":: \n" ); document.write( "10(2u-4) + u = 10u+2u-4 + 9 \n" ); document.write( "------ \n" ); document.write( "21u - 40 = 12u + 5 \n" ); document.write( "9u = 45 \n" ); document.write( "u = 5 \n" ); document.write( "---- \n" ); document.write( "t = 2u-4 = 6 \n" ); document.write( "--- \n" ); document.write( "Ans: number = 65 \n" ); document.write( "----------------------- \n" ); document.write( "Cheers, \n" ); document.write( "Stan H. \n" ); document.write( "------------ \n" ); document.write( " |
