Hey there! :D

21= 2x-6+x

21=3x-6

27=3x

x=9

The smaller number is 9. 

The larger number is:

9*2= 18 18-6= 12

The larger number is 12. 

I hope this helps!

Jakes has $20 to spend on notebooks and pencils the notebooks and pencils. the notebooks cost 3.25 and the pencils cost $.50 wha
Leokris [45]
Hey there. So basically, find out how much the pencils and notebooks cost first.
The notebooks cost = $3.25
The pencils cost = $0.50

Then, think about what you need to figure out in this problem.
Jake has $20. You need to find how many notebooks Jake can buy in maximum after buying 8 pencils.

If Jake buys 8 pencils that costs $0.50 each, he spends $4 on the pencils.

So now, to find out how many notebooks he can buy, do 20 minus 4.
Jake's got $16 left.

If the notebooks cost $3.25 each, we need to find out how many notebooks he can buy by dividing them. So, 16 divided by 3.25 equals 4.923... and so on.

That means, Jake can buy 4 notebooks with his remaining money.
