Answer:

The smaller number equals 12, the larger number equals 51.

Step-by-step explanation:

x + (3x + 15) = 63

Combine like terms.

4x + 15 = 63

Subtract 15 from both sides.

4x + (15 -15) = (63 - 15)

4x = 48

Divide both sides by 4.

4x/4 = 48/4

x = 12

Check answer.

12 + (3(12) + 15) = 63

12 + 36 + 15 = 63

63 = 63

x=0

because you must

determine the undefined range

write all numerators above the common denomonator

multiply the parenthesis

collect the alike terms

remove parenthesis

eliminate the opposites collect the like terms

set the numerator equal to 0

divide both sides by 6

check if thesolution is the defined range

if so then you would find your answer X=0

-1/3x+1=-7 negative one third x plus one equals negative seven
liraira [26]
Multiply both sides by -3 to get rid of the negative and the fraction.

X - 3 = 21

Move the constants over to isolate the variable

X = 24
