Answer:
x = 18 y = 10
Step-by-step explanation:
let the first number be x
let the second number be y
x = y + 8..... equation 1
2x + y = 46.... equation 2
x is the larger number
y is the smaller number.
Rearrange the equation and add equation 1 to equation 2.
x - y = 8
+ 2x + y = 46
-------------------
3x + 0 = 54
3x = 54
divide both sides by 3
x = 54/3
x = 18
Substitute x = 18 into equation 1
x = y + 8
18 = y + 8
collect like terms
y = 18-8
y = 10
Answer:
x = - 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
x + 5 = 1 ( subtract 5 from both sides )
x = - 4
Multiply both sides by 3 to clear the fraction
2x = - 12 ( divide both sides by 2 )
x = - 6
183 x 194 = 35,502
