Let the numbers be x and y.

by the first statement of the question, we get , x + y = 30.,,..(1)

by the second satement, we get , x = y+ y => x=2y... (2)

from equation (2), let us put the value of x in equation (1),
x + y = 30
=> 2y + y = 30
=> 3y = 30
=> y =30/3
=> y = 10

and x=2y => x = 2*10 = 20

in short, the numbers are 10 and 20

What value of x <br> in the solution set of 2(3x – 1) ≥ 4x – 6?
Brrunno [24]
First, you must distribute 2(3x-1).
To do that, you will multiply 2•3x, and 2•-1 because you are taking the number outside of the parentheses and multiplying (distributing) it to all the numbers inside

After distributing, the left side of your inequality will be 6x-2

Now you have
6x - 2 \geqslant 4x - 6

To find the value of x, you must subtract an x value from both sides of the equation, as well as a constant from each side.

so you have
6x - 2 \geqslant 4x - 6 \\ - 6x \geqslant + 6
And that will make the equation
- 4 \geqslant - 2x
Now, divide the variable side, ***BUT, because you are dividing by a negative number in an inequality, the inequality will switch sides.

Then, the value of x is greater than or equal to 2

Una funzione inversamente proporzionale è rappresentata da?
puteri [66]
Supponiamo che due variabili x e y siano inversamente proporzionali; allora possiamo rappresentarli come x ∝ 1 / y. Ciò significa che se il valore di x aumenta, il valore di y diminuisce e viceversa.


Suppose two variables x and y are inversely proportional; then we can represent them as x ∝ 1/y. That means, if the value of x increases, then the value of y decreases and vice versa.
