Answer:
7 - 2 / x = 4 + 10 / x
or , 7 - 4 = 10 / x + 2 / x
or , 3 = 12 / x
or , x = 12 / 3
Therefore , x = 4
2 equations: the first one is the sum of 2 unknown numbers x and y: x + y = 72. Now the difference is 25, so x - y = 25. Solve the first equation for y: y = 72 - x. Sub that into the second equation to solve for x: x - (72 - x) = 25. x - 72 + x = 25 and 2x - 72 = 25. Therefore, 2x = 97 and x = 48.5 That's the larger of the 2 numbers; since we subtracted y from x we defined x as the larger of the 2. Just for fun, plug x in to find that y = 23.5

Just jump the gun and multiply -7 and the value of d
-2[7x^2-24]-31
I got
-14x^2+17
as the total answer btw...
