The number of boys . . . . . B
Twice the number of boys . . . 2B
4 more than twice the number of boys . . . 2B+4

You said that the number of girls is equal to that, so . . .  G = 2B+4

But you also told us what  G  is:  16 = 2B+4

Subtract  4  from each side:  12 = 2B

Divide each side by  2 :  6 = B

There you have it.  There are  6 boys in the club.

2x+y=3<br>x-y= 1<br><br>solve the equation ​
svetlana [45]

Answer:

x = 4/3

y = 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

System of equations! This is set up really well to make the second equation equal x then substitute.

x - y = 1

x = 1 + y

and then our substitution:

2 (1+y) + y = 3

and solve:

2 + 2y + y = 3

3y + 2 = 3

3y = 1

y = 1/3

And now we can substitute that value into one of our equations:

x - (1/3) = 1

x = 4/3

Next we should check by substituting these values into both of our equations:

2 (4/3) + (1/3) = 3

9 / 3 does equal 3 !

(4/3) - (1/3) does equal 1 !

Therefore, x = 4/3 , and y = 1/3
