Answer:

<u>28.5 and 32.5</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>create an equation to solve:</em>

x + (x+4) =61

2x + 4 = 61 combine like terms

2x = 57 subtract 4 from both sides

x = 28.5 divide 2 from both sides

28.5 is the smaller number

the larger number is 4 more so:

28.5 + 4 = 32.5

32.5 is the larger number

check your work:

28.5 + 32.5 = 61

Y= -x +3 and y = x - 1
inysia [295]

Answer:

x=2 and y=1

Step-by-step explanation:

Rewrite equations:

y=−x+3;y=x−1

Step: Solve

y=−x+3

Step: Substitute−x+3foryiny=x−1:

y=x−1

−x+3=x−1

−x+3+−x=x−1+−x(Add -x to both sides)

−2x+3=−1

−2x+3+−3=−1+−3(Add -3 to both sides)

−2x=−4−2x−2=−4−2

(Divide both sides by -2)

x=2

Step: Substitute2forxiny=−x+3:

y=−x+3

y=−2+3

y=1(Simplify both sides of the equation)

Hope this Helps you :)
