Answer:
smaller number = 3 5/24
larger number = 6 13/24
Step-by-step explanation:
let the larger number = x
smaller number = y
x - y = 3 1/3 equation 1
2(x +y) = 191/2 equation 2
divide equation 2 through by 2
x + y = 9 3/4 equation 3
subtract equation 1 from 3
2y = 6 5/12
y = 77/12 x 1/2 = 3 5/24
substitute for y in equation 1
x - 3 5/24 = 31/3
x = 3 1/3 + 3 5/24
x = 6 13/24
A) she incorrectly determined the GCF.
The GCF of 32ab - ab would be ab, not 8b.
Move all terms that dont contain y to the right side and solve and you get:
y=4x/3-7

Answer:
3
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
11x -8y = -9
Step-by-step explanation:
8x-4y=-4
-3x+4y=5
Subtract the second equation from the first
8x-4y=-4
-(-3x+4y=5)
-----------------------------
Distribute the minus sign
8x-4y=-4
+(3x-4y=-5)
-----------------------------
11x -8y = -9
