The difference between twice a number, x, and a smaller number, y, is 3. The sum of twice the number and the smaller number is –
3. Which equations represent this situation? A. Y = 2 x minus 3 and y = negative 2 x minus B. 3 y = 2 x minus 3 and y = negative one-half x minus three-halves C. Y = 2 x + 3 and y = negative 2 x minus 3 D. Y = 2 x + 3 and y = negative one-half x minus three-halves
