One number is three less than four times another. If their difference is 48, what is the larger number?

Mathematics

Answer:

65

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number and y be the another one.

x=4y-3

x-y=48

Substitute x=4y-3 into x-y=48

(4y-3)-y=48

3y=51

y=17

[Since we know x is larger than y (4y-3), we need to use y to calculate out x.]

Substitute y=17 into x=4y-3

x=68-3

x=65

Interpreting the inequality, it is found that the correct option is given by F.

------------------

  • The first equation is of the line.
  • The equal sign is present in the inequality, which means that the line is not dashed, which removes option G.

In standard form, the equation of the line is:

x + 2y = 6

2y = 6 - x

y = -0.5x + 2

Thus it is a decreasing line, which removes options J.

  • We are interested in the region on the plane below the line, that is, less than the line, which removes option H.

------------------

  • As for the second equation, the normalized equation is:

3x^2 + 3y^2 = 12

3(x^2 + y^2) = 12

x^2 + y^2 = 4

  • Thus, a circle centered at the origin and with radius 2.
  • Now, we have to check if the line x + 2y - 6 = 0, with coefficients a = 1, b = 2, c = -6, intersects the circle, of centre x = 0, y = 0
  • First, we find the following distance:

d = \sqrt{\frac{|ax + by + c|}{a^2 + b^2}}

  • Considering the coefficients of the line and the center of the circle.

d = \sqrt{\frac{|1(0) + 2(0) - 6|}{1^2 + 2^2}} = \sqrt{\frac{6}{5}} = 1.1

  • This distance is less than the radius, thus, the line intersects the circle, which removes option K, and states that the correct option is given by F.
