8 < 4 (x + 1) Use the Distributive Property
8 < 4x + 4 Subtract 4 from both sides
4 < 4x Divide both sides by 4
1 < x
Answer:
<em>7, 22</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
Let S = the smaller number.
"The larger number is 1 more than 3 times the smaller number."
The larger number is 3S + 1.
The difference between the numbers is 15, so the larger number minus the smaller number equals 15.
3S + 1 - S = 15
2S + 1 = 15
2S = 14
S = 7
The smaller number is 7.
larger number = 3S + 1 = 3(7) + 1 = 21 + 1 = 22
The larger number is 22.
Nine more than a variable "a".
