X and y are the numbers
x>y
diffference is 42
x-y=42
larger is 3 less than 6 times smaller
x=-3+6y
subsitute -3+6y for x
x-y=42
-3+6y-y=42
-3+5y=42
add3 to both sides
5y=45
divide both sides by 5
y=9
sub back
x=-3+6y
x=-3+6(9)
x=-3+54
x=51
the numbers are 51 and 9
To do this problem, you need to use the Pythagorean thermion I think.
Here is what I got as an answer
22.5 km
One equation that you could make is 5+2-(-3)
Answer:
2x-3y+z
Step-by-step explanation:
-2x-y-2z+4x-2y+3z
combine like terms
-2x+4x= 2x
-y-2y= -3y
-2z+3z= z
so..
2x-3y+z
