<h3><u>The value of the smaller number is 31.</u></h3><h3><u>The value of the larger number is 43.</u></h3>

y = 12 + x

y + x = 74

Since we have a value for y, we can plug it into the second equation

12 + x + x = 74

Subtract 12 from both sides.

x + x = 62

Combine like terms.

2x = 62

Divide both sides by 2.

x = 31


Now that we have a value of x, we can plug it into the original equation to get a value for y.

y = 12 + 31

y = 43

We are given the equation of a line

y = -2x + 1

We have to find the value of y at three different values of x i.e. at x =0, -3 and 1

In order to find the value of y at any given x, simply replace x by that number.

So, for x=0, we will replace x by 0 to find the value of y. So y will be:
y = -2(0) + 1
y = 1
This can be expressed as an ordered pair as (0,1)

Similarly for x=-3, we get:
y = -2(-3) + 1 = 6 + 1
y = 7
This can be expressed as an ordered pair as (-3, 7)

And, finally for x=1, we get:
y= -2(1) + 1 = -2 + 1
y= -1
This can be expressed as an ordered pair as (-1, -1)

PolarNik [594]

Answer:

x = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

5 = x + 8

You need to get x by Itself so subtract 8 to both sides.

5 - 8 = -3

so therefore x = - 3
