First thing to do is distribute 1/4 into the parenthesis. So 1/4 times 8x and 16. Which will give you 2x and 4. Then add like terms which will be 2x + 4x which is 6x. Then you have the 4 left over so your new equation is 6x+4.

Sum of two numbers is -17. Their difference is 41. Find the numbers

wel

Answer:

$Suppose~the~two~numbers~are~x~and~y.\\From~the~first~condition,\\x+y=-17...........(1)\\From~the~second~condition,\\x-y=41.............(2)\\Adding~eq^n(1)~and~eq^n(2),~we~get,\\x+y+x-y=-17+41\\or, 2x = 24\\or, x=12\\Substituting~x=12~in~eq^n(2),\\y = -17-x = -17-12 = -29$

$So,~the~two~numbers~are~12~and~-29.$
