let "one number" = x, and "another" = y

x = 4y + 4

(x + y) - 4 = 28

Plug in 4y + 4 for x

4y + 4 + y - 4 = 28

Simplify. Combine like terms

5y = 28

Isolate the y. Divide 5 from both sides

y = 28/5

y =  5.6

Plug in 28/5 for y.

x = 4y + 4

x = 4(28/5) + 4

Simplify

x = 22.4 + 4

x = 26.4

x = 26.4, y = 5.6

hope this helps

What is the value of x in the equation 3(4x + 6) = 21?
Elenna [48]

For this case we must find the value of the variable "x" of the following equation:

3 (4x + 6) = 21

We apply distributive property to the terms within parentheses:

12x + 18 = 21

We subtract 18 from both sides of the equation:

12x + 18-18 = 21-18

We divide between 12 on both sides of the equation:

12x = 3

x = \frac {3} {12}\\x = \frac {1} {4}

Answer:

x = \frac {1} {4}

a. A' means the complement with respect to Z? If so, then

To know A' you need to write all the elements in Z that are not in A.

A'= \{ u, v, w, x, y, z\}

b. All the subsets of B, is knowed as P(B),

P(B) = \{ \emptyset, \{w\}, \{x\}, \{y\}, \{w,x\}, \{w,y\}, \{x,y\}, B \}

c. A \cup B = \{a,b,c,d,e,f,g,h,i,j,k,l,m,n,o,p,q,r,s,t, w,x,y \} (Add to A the elements of B, or equivalently add to B the elements of A)

d. A \cap B  express informally speaking the elements that have in common, but there is no element in common, so

A \cap B = \emptyset
