Answer:
Let's begin by writing the mathematical equations given by the sentences.
Let X = smaller number
Let Y = larger number
The first sentence tells us
X + Y = 38
The second sentence tells us
X = Y/3 + 6
Since you weren't given a specific method to use, you can use either the substitution method or the elimination(addition) method, whichever works best for you.
Since the 2nd equation has the X isolated, I'm going to isolate the X in the first equation,
X = 38 - Y
Since both equations are equal to X, I can set them equal to one another and solve for Y.
Y/3 + 6 = 38 - Y
Y + 18 = 114 - 3Y
4Y = 96
Y = 24
Then use either of the two original equations to solve for X
X + Y = 38
X + 24 = 38
X = 14

PLS MAKE ME AS BRAINLIST
we are given in the problem the number of hours Peter has played for video games. In this case, f(x) is the number of hours of playing with x as the number of weeks of playing. In this case, the equation f(x) = 5x.
What are your answer choices? I’m not sure which equation they are asking for?
The solution to this system of equations is
X= -5
Y= -3
I think it can be 605. I'm not sure exactly, but I think it is.
7x/x-4 * x/x+7
mutiply the numerators together
(7x)(x)= 7x^ 2
mutiply the denominators together
(x-4)(x+7)
(x)(x)(7)(x)= x^2+7x
(-4)(x)(-4)(7)= -4x-28
x^2+7x-4x-28
x^2+3x-28
Answer:
7x^2/x^ 2+3x-28
