Answer:
<em>7, 22</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
Let S = the smaller number.
"The larger number is 1 more than 3 times the smaller number."
The larger number is 3S + 1.
The difference between the numbers is 15, so the larger number minus the smaller number equals 15.
3S + 1 - S = 15
2S + 1 = 15
2S = 14
S = 7
The smaller number is 7.
larger number = 3S + 1 = 3(7) + 1 = 21 + 1 = 22
The larger number is 22.
A coefficient is a numerical or constant quantity placed before and multiplying the variable in an algebraic expression (e.g. 4 in 4x).
The 2 and + are out since they don't have variables(and the + is just a +).
So 4 and x are left. x is a variable, not a coefficient, so the last(and correct) answer is 4.

Step-by-step explanation:
Use the quadratic formula
=

4
√
2
x=\frac{-{\color{#e8710a}{b}} \pm \sqrt{{\color{#e8710a}{b}}^{2}-4{\color{#c92786}{a}}{\color{#129eaf}{c}}}}{2{\color{#c92786}{a}}}
x=2a−b±b2−4ac
Once in standard form, identify a, b and c from the original equation and plug them into the quadratic formula.
