Let
x--------->  the larger number
y---------> the smaller number

we know that
x+y=148------> equation 1
x=3y-2------> equation 2

substitute 2 in 1
[3y-2]+y=148--------> 4y=150---------> y=150/4------> y=37.5
x=3y-2----> x=3*37.5-2-----> x=110.5

the answer is
the larger number is 110.5
the smaller number is 37.5

Answer it pls option c
Troyanec [42]

Answer:

x = \frac{1}{4}

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{x}{2} +\frac{3}{4} =\frac{7}{8}

→ Find the LCM of the denominators (2,4 and 8)

LCM = 8

→ Multiply the whole equation by 8 to get rid of the fractions

4x + 6 = 7

→ Minus 6 from both sides to isolate 4x

4x = 1

→ Divide both sides by 4 to isolate x

x = \frac{1}{4}
