The number of pages in the u. s. tax code exceeds the number of pages in the king james bible by 18,528. the combined number of pages in the tax code and the bible is 21,472. how many pages are in the bible?

The number of pages in the U.S. tax code x=20000 and the number of pages in the King James Bible y = 1472

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of pages in the U.S. tax code be x and the number of pages in the King James Bible be y.

According to the given problem , we have the following system

x - y = 18528    (1)

x + y = 21472     (2)

Adding (1) and (2) , we get

2x = 18528 +21472 = 40000

⇒ 2x =40000

⇒ x =20000

Putting value of x = 20000 in (2) ,we get

20000 + y =21472

⇒ y = 1472

Ans  the number of pages in the U.S. tax code x=20000 and the number of pages in the King James Bible y = 1472

1 x=22.52

2: 65/39=604+39x

65x-39x=604

26x=604

x=604/26

×=23.23
