Two numbers have a sum of 44. the larger number is 2 more than the smaller number. what is the smaller number?

let large number=l

let small number=s

Two numbers have a sum of 44

l+s=44 (1)

The larger number is 2 more than the smaller number

l-s=2 (2)

(1)+(2)

2l=46

l=23

l+s=44

23+s=44

s=44-23

s=21

Step-by-step explanation:

intensity of the vector is v= √37 ≈ 6.08 units and make angle ∡α ≈ 9.46° with east direction

step-by-step explanation:

required vector is consists of the two componentsvx= 2+4=6 units   and vy= 1 unit and vx ⊥ vywe will use pythagorian theorem to find intensity of the vector vv∧2 = vx∧2 + vy∧2 => v = √vx∧2 + vy∧2 = √6∧2 + 1∧2 = √36+1 = √37 ≈ 6.08 unitsthe angle ∡α between vector and east direction we wil find with tanαtanα = 1/6 => α = arc tanα = arc 1/6 => α ≈ 9.46°

hope this

were is the equation
