Solution: The commutative property of addition states that when two numbers are being added, their order can be changed without affecting the sum.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi there!
Let the smaller number be x and the larger number be 2x+1.
According to the question,
The sum of the numbers is 20 less than three
times the larger.
i.e x + (2x+1)= 3*(2x+1) - 20
or, x + 2x +1 = 6x + 3 -20
or, 3x + 1 = 6x - 17
or, 3x = 18
or x= 18/3
x = 6
And 2x+1 = 2*6+1 = 13.
Therefore the smaller number is 6 and larger number is 13.
Hope it helps!
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
a coordinate point is (x, y) so for point W (4, -1), 4 is the x-coordinate and -1 is the y-coordinate.
Start at the origin (O). Go 4 units to the right (along the x-axis in a positive direction) and then 1 unit down (in the y plane in a negative direction).
Answer: x is less than or equal to 35.
