The sum of two numbers is 44 . One number is 3 times as large as the other. What are the numbers?

11 and 33

Step-by-step explanation:

The the smaller number be . Since the other number is 3 times as large as the other, we can represent the large number as . Because they add up to 44, we have the following equation:

Combine like terms:

Divide both sides by 4:

Substitute into to find the larger number:

Therefore, the two numbers are 11 and 33.

the reason why your question keeps getting deleted because this is not a school related question : )

i will answer your question though.

i never tried church's

1 number

if we use a graphing calculator, there is only one such number that satisfies the conclusion of the mean value theorem, that is, a number such that

where the right-hand side is the average rate of change of f on the interval [0.5,0.75], which is the slope of the secant line.

in the attached graph, the black line is the secant line which has its slope as the average rate of change of f on [0.5,0.75], while the orange line is the only tangent line to the graph of f in the interval that satisfies the mvt conclusion.
