Let the two numbers be x and y.

The difference between the numbers is 4. Therefore
x - y = 4             (1)

The sum of one-half of each number is 18, therefore
x/2 + y/ 2 = 18
x + y = 36          (2)

Add equations (1) and (2).
(x - y) + (x + y) = 4 + 36
2x = 40
x = 20
From (2), obtain
y = 36 - x = 36 - 20 = 16.

Answer: The two numbers are 16 and 20.

If you examine the numbers in the question above very well, you will discover that thy have a distinctive pattern. The pattern is this, you add 3 to the first number and then you multiply the next by 2. Lets go over the numbers now:
6 + 3 = 9
9 * 2 = 18
18 + 3 = 21
21 * 2 = 42
42 + 3 = 45
45 * 2 = 90
90 + 3 = 93
93 * 2 = 186, etc.
Thus, the next number after 45 is 90.

Daniel and Sofia both solve this system of equations: y = -1.5x + 5.7 y = 0.5x + 0.3 Daniel's solution is (1.1, 2.4). Sofia's so
scoundrel [369]
Y = -1.5x + 5.7
y = 0.5x + 0.3

-1.5x + 5.7 = 0.5x + 0.3
-1.5x - 0.5x = 0.3 - 5.7
-2x = - 5.4
x = -5.4/-2
x = 2.7

y = 0.5x + 0.3
y = 0.5(2.7) + 0.3
y = 1.35 + 0.3
y = 1.65

solution is (2.7, 1.65)

Sophia is more likely to be correct because the x coordinate is between 2 and 3 and the y coordinate is in between 1 and 2
