Answer: 
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that when you add two numbers together the result is 3.
The greater of the number is given as a.
Let "x" represent that lesser number.
Thus:
To make x the subject of the formula. Subtract a from both x.
Therefore, the expression that represents the lesser number, x, is:
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
First label the equations.
6x +3y= 18 -----(1)
y= -2x +5 -----(2)
subst. (2) into (1):
6x +3(-2x +5)= 18
6x +3(-2x) +3(5)= 18 (expand)
6x -6x +15= 18
15= 18 (simplify)
(reject)
There is no solution.
<u>Further explanation</u><u>:</u>
If I rewrite the first equation into the form of y=mx+c, I would get
6x +3y=18
3y= 18 -6x (bring y term to one side)
y= 6- 2x (÷3 throughout)
y= -2x +6
Notice that the gradients of both lines are equal ( -2). This implies that they are parallel to each other and will never meet. Hence there are no solutions.
