The sum of two numbers is zero.
x + y = 0
y = -x
<span>Twice the smaller number subtracted from 3 times the larger number is 10.
Let x represent the larger number and y represent the smaller number.
Twice the smaller number: 2y
3 times the larger number: 3x
</span>Twice the smaller number subtracted from 3 times the larger number is 10.
3x - 2y = 10
-2y = -3x + 10
y = 3/2 x - 5
The equations are:
y = -x
y = 3/2 x - 5
The answer is the first choice.
