we have the two numbers, x and y

x - y = 3

y = 0.75x

x - 0.75x = 3

0.25x = 3

x = 12

We substitute x into an equation: y = 0.75x

0.75 x 12 = 9 so y = 9

They have a difference of three

x = 12 and y = 9


Hope I helped!

nadya68 [22]

Answer:

Below.

Step-by-step explanation:

You can use any 4 x values, so we could have:

- 2  0  2  4

Now find the corresponding y values by substitution in the equation:

For x = -2, y = 1/2 *-2 + 2 = 1.

For x = 0, y = 1/2 * 0 + 2 = 2.

For x = 2 , y = 1/2* 2 + 2 = 3.

For x =  4 , y = 1/2 * 4 + 2 = 4.

So the table is:

-2   0    2   4

1    2    3   4

You then plot the points (-2, 1), (0, 2), (2, 3) AND (4, 4) on the grid  and draw a line through them The graph will be a straight line.

Please Help! I need help to my math question
dem82 [27]
First you need to get rid of the parenthesis by distributing the 0.6 to each term inside.
(0.6)(10n) + (0.6)(25) =10+5n
6n +15 = 10+5n subtract the 5n on both sides and subtract 15 from both sides
6n-5n = 10-15 
n=-5
