The number A is a two - digit positive integer, the number B is the two - digit positve integer formed by reversing the digits of A. If `Q=10B-A`, what is the value of Q?
(1) The tens digit of A is 7.
(2) The tens digit of B is 6.

The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the value of \( Q = 10B - A \) given the conditions about the digits of the two-digit numbers \( A \) and \( B \). ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Define the Numbers**: Let \( A \) be a two-digit number represented as \( A = 10y + x \), where \( y \) is the tens digit and \( x \) is the units digit. Let \( B \) be the number formed by reversing the digits of \( A \), so \( B = 10x + y \). 2. **Substitute into the Equation for Q**: We need to calculate \( Q = 10B - A \). Substitute the expressions for \( A \) and \( B \): \[ Q = 10(10x + y) - (10y + x) \] 3. **Simplify the Expression**: Expanding the equation gives: \[ Q = 100x + 10y - 10y - x \] The \( 10y \) terms cancel out: \[ Q = 100x - x = 99x \] 4. **Determine the Value of x**: From the problem, we have two conditions: - Condition (1): The tens digit of \( A \) is 7, which means \( y = 7 \). - Condition (2): The tens digit of \( B \) is 6, which means \( x = 6 \). 5. **Calculate Q**: Since we have determined \( x = 6 \) from Condition (2), we can substitute this value into the equation for \( Q \): \[ Q = 99x = 99 \times 6 = 594 \] ### Final Answer: The value of \( Q \) is \( 594 \). ---
