<span>To answer this question, you need to multiply the number inside the bracket first. Then you can move the number to the right side of the equal sign and keep the x on the left side of the equal sign. The step would be like this

2(x – 5) - 6x= -22
(2x - 10) - 6x = -22
2x - 6x = -22 +10
-4x= -12
x= -12/-4
x=3</span>

The sum of two numbers is -23, and the difference of the larger and the

geniusboy [140]

The two numbers are 29 and -52

Further explanation:

Let x be the larger number

and

y be the smaller number

then according to given statements

$x+y = -23\\x-y=81$

Adding both equations

$x+y+x-y=-23+81\\2x=58\\\frac{2x}{2} =\frac{58}{2}$

$x=29$

Putting x = 29 in first equation

$29+y=-23\\y=-23-29\\y=-52$

<u>Proof:</u>

Putting the values of x and y in first equation

$29-52=-23\\-23=-23$

So, The two numbers are 29 and -52

The variable y is directly proportional to the variable x. If y = 12 when x = 14, what is the value of x when y = 24? A) 26 B) 2

vekshin1

Hi There!

Answer:

B) 28

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 12 and x = 14 are both proportional.

y = 24 and x = ? are both proportional.

You notice that 24 is twice as much as 12 so we do the same with x.

14 * 2 = 28

They are both proportional when y = 24 and x = 28.

Hope This Helps :)
