The larger number is 30.
Set up your equation.
x + y = 25
The question tells us one number is 5 less than the other.
The equation now becomes
x -5 = 25
Add 5 to each side to isolate x.
x=30
Answer:
{y,x} = {-6,-2}
Step-by-step explanation:
/ Solve equation [2] for the variable y
[2] y = 2x - 2
// Plug this in for variable y in equation [1]
[1] (2x-2) - x = -4
[1] x = -2
// Solve equation [1] for the variable x
[1] x = - 2
// By now we know this much :
y = 2x-2
x = -2
// Use the x value to solve for y
y = 2(-2)-2 = -6
Hey, here it is: 2,4 x 10^-6
X^2-3x-10. You solve it by foiling. I attached a photo explaining how to do it.
