One positive number is 5 times another number. The difference between the two is 1480.

Hey there!

Let's create a systems of equations with x and y to find our numbers.

x=5y

x-y=1480

Let's plug our x value into the second equation.

5y=y=1480

4y=1480

y=370

Now we multiply this number by five as the first equation says to get our x.

x=1850

Our numbers are 1850 and 370.

I hope this helps!

3.how is solving radical equations different than solving linear equations?

step-by-step explanation:

whole numbers.

step-by-step explanation:

we are given the average monthly rainfall (in millimeters) model r(m) for the years 1900-2009 as a function of the month number m.

as we can see m is taken for the number of months for years 1900-2009.

we know that number of months can't be a negative number or decimal number or a fraction.

so, the number of months could be only positive whole numbers.

therefore, whole numbers is more appropriate for the domain of r.
