Hi there!

To solve this problem, we need to set up two equations and use the system of equations to solve.

Let x be the first number.
Let y be the second number.

(x + y) ÷ 2 = 34
x = 3y

Now, we can use substitution to solve.

(3y + y) ÷ 2 = 34
4y ÷ 2 = 34
2y = 34
y = 17

Now, we plug the value of y in the equation to solve for x.

x = 3*17
x = 51

Hope this helps!

Solve the problem making a chart. A Roman statue is three times as old as Florentine statue. One hundred years from now the Roma
Paraphin [41]

Answer:  300 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the age of Florentine statue,

Thus, According to the question,

The age of Roman statue = 3 x

After 100 years, the age of Florentine statue = x + 100

And, the age of Roman statue = 3x + 100

Again according to the question,

3x + 100 = 2( x + 100)

3x + 100 = 2x + 200

3x - 2 x = 200 - 100

x = 100

Therefore,  the present age of Roman statue = 3 × 100 = 300 years

What is 3y^2+3(4y^2-2)?
egoroff_w [7]

It's a 2nd degree algebraic expression in ' y '.

It's pretty messy in this form, and it can be substantially cleaned up.

Looking at just the second term, we can remove the parentheses:

3 (4y² - 2) = 12y² - 6

Now we can put that into the original expression ... 3y² + 12y² - 6

then combine the y² terms:    <em>15y² - 6</em> .

If you want to go one step farther, we can factor it:  <em>3(5y² - 2) </em>
