The sum of two numbers is 53. The larger number is two more than twice the smaller number. What are the numbers? Write a system of equations and solve using substitution.

17 and 36

Step-by-step explanation:

x + y = 53  

y = 2x + 2

x + 2x +2 = 53

3x = 51

x = 17

so y = 2 x 17 + 2 = 36

the length of o'p' is .

step-by-step explanation:

it is given that the quadrilateral m'n'o'p' is the image of quadrilateral mnop after dilation.

the center of dilation is origin and the scale factor is 1.5.

in dilation the image and preimge are similar figures. it means the sides of image and preimage are proportional.

the scale factor is defined as

the scale factor is 1.5.

multiply both sides by op.

note: if the value of op is given, then multiply the value of op with 1.5 to get the length of side o'p'.

therefore length of o'p' is .
