Translate into an equation. The sum of two numbers is ten. The total of three times the smaller and twice the larger is twenty-
four.
Find the two numbers.

Use the variable x to denote the smaller number. Express the larger number in terms of the smaller number.
Remember that their total is 10.
What is the equation and the two numbers?

Determine the quotient and remainder when (6a3)+11a2-4a-9) is divided by (3a-2) express your answer in the form q(a) + r(a)/d(a)

Asays "we are both knaves" and b says nothing. exercises 24–31 relate to inhabitants of an island on which there are three kinds of people: knights who always tell the truth, knaves who always lie, and spies (called normals by smullyan [sm78]) who can either lie or tell the truth. you encounter three people, a, b, and c. you know one of these people is a knight, one is a knave, and one is a spy. each of the three people knows the type of person each of other two is. for each of these situations, if possible, determine whether there is a unique solution and determine who the knave, knight, and spy are. when there is no unique solution, list all possible solutions or state that there are no solutions. 24. a says "c is the knave," b says, "a is the knight," and c says "i am the spy."

Lindsay used two points, (x,y; ) and (+2.82), to find the equation of the line, y = mx + b, that passes through the points. y2-y, first, she used the definition of slope and determined that the value of mis x, - . given this information, which expression must represent the value of b?
