Answer:

13 and 44

Step-by-step explanation:

let x and y be the 2 numbers with y < x , then

x - y = 31 ( add y to both sides )

x = y + 31 ( subtract 31 from both sides )

x - 31 = y → (1)

4y = x + 8 → (2)

substitute y = x - 31 into (2)

4(x - 31) = x + 8

4x - 124 = x + 8 ( subtract x from both sides )

3x - 124 = 8 ( add 124 to both sides )

3x = 132 ( divide both sides by 3 )

x = 44

substitute x = 44 into (1)

44 - 31  = y , then

y = 13

the 2 numbers are 13 and 44

Answer:

The correct way to set up the slope formula for the line that passes through points (5 , 0) and (6 , -6) is  \frac{-6-0}{6-5} ⇒ C

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula of the slope of a line passes through points (x_{1},y_{1}) and (x_{2},y_{2})

is m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}

∵ The line passes through points (5 , 0) and (6 , -6)

∴ x_{1} = 5 and  x_{2} = 6

∴  y_{1} = 0 and  y_{2} = -6

Substitute these values in the formula of the slope

∵ m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}

∴ m=\frac{-6-0}{6-5}

Let us look to the answer and find the same formula

The answer is:

The correct way to set up the slope formula for the line that passes through points (5 , 0) and (6 , -6) is  \frac{-6-0}{6-5}
