The sum of two numbers is 100; the first number is 12 less than the second number? What equation best represents the following

Let the first number be f.

Let the second number be s.

f = s-12

f+s = 100

Substitute the f in the first equation for the second equation.

s-12+s = 100

2s-12 =100

2s = 112

s = 56

Therefore f = 56-12 = 44

The 2 numbers are 56 and 44.

in the math equation 8 x 7 = 56, the 8 and the 7 are both factors of 56, since in this lesson we will use square tiles to figure out the factors of a whole find as many different arrays as you can, but follow one important rule: all the rows must have the i can make two rows of nine, so 2 and 9 are both factors of 18.

step-by-step explanation:

x = 3 ± √(5+y)
