Answer:
x=0
y= -1
Step-by-step explanation:
x−2y=2 - eq 1
3x+2y=−2 - eq 2
x−2y=2
(3x+2y)+(x−2y)=−2+2
x−2y=2
3x+2y+x−2y=0
x=0
y= -1
The result can be shown in both exact and decimal forms.Exact Form:<span><span>−<span>14</span></span><span>-<span>14</span></span></span>Decimal Form:<span>−<span>0.25

Finding the Number
To find the number, we have to translate the problem above to an algebraic equation. The algebraic equation refers to the statement of the equality of two algebraic expressions.
Equation:
Let "x" be the number.
4 is divided by a number - 4/x
3 divided by the number decreased by 2 - 3/x-2
"4 is divided by a number is equal to 3 divided by the number decreased by 2"
4/x = 3/x-2
Solution:
Cross multiply.
4/x = 3/x-2
x(3) = 4(x-2)
3x = 4x - 8
(Combine similar terms.)
3x - 4x = - 8
- x = - 8
- x/- 1 = - 8/- 1
x = 8
Final Answer:
8
Checking:
4/x = 3/x-2
4/8 = 3/8-2
1/2 = 3/6
1/2 = 1/2 ✔
