Answer:
y=-1/2x+1
Step-by-step explanation:
y=mx+b
If you put in the substitutions it would be 2*2-(2*2*4)+(3*2)-(-4*2)+(2*4).
Simplified further by multiplying it would be 2*2-8+6--8+8
the negative 8 could be simplified further since the negatives cancel out so you'll have 2*2-8+6+8+8.
Then using the order of operations you would multiply the 2's together first to get 4 so you have 4-8+6+8+8.
After that it's simple addition giving you an answer of -26.
I'm not sure if you're looking for the final answer or just the equation with substitutions but there's both.
ANSWER
The larger number is 18
<u>EXPLANATION</u>
Let x be the larger number and y be the smaller number.
Then,
Let us add equation (1) and (2).
Divide through by 2
Put in to equation (1).
This implies that,
Solving
S = 3F - 24
for F gives
S + 24 = 3F
(S + 24)/3 = F
The best choice is the last one:
F = (S + 24)/3
4,398,200 is your answer
hope this helps
