The difference of two numbers is 7. Three times the greater number is 72. find the numbers​

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the greater number be x and the smaller number be y.

So,

Condition # 1:

x - y = 7 --------------(1)

Condition # 2:

3x = 72 --------------(2)

Taking Eq. (2)

3x = 72

Divide both sides by 3

x = 72 / 3

x = 24

Now, Put x = 24 in Eq. (1)

24 - y = 7

Subtract 24 to both sides

-y = 7 - 24

-y = -17

y = 17

Hope this helped!

i leave the calculator work to you.

7. diameter 4 miles, circumference 4π miles

8. radius 0.2 miles, circumference 0.4π miles

[this is a bad problem because the actual radius of a car on the track is less than 0.2 miles so the answer is less than 0.4π miles]

9. radius 6 feet, circumference 12π feet

10. diameter 14 cm, circumference 14π cm

11. diameter 4.8 feet, circumference 4.8π feet
