Answer:

x = 136/11 , y = 68/11

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve the following system:

{6 x - y = 68

2 y = x

Hint: | Choose an equation and a variable to solve for.

In the second equation, look to solve for x:

{6 x - y = 68

2 y = x

Hint: | Reverse the equality in 2 y = x in order to isolate x to the left hand side.

2 y = x is equivalent to x = 2 y:

{6 x - y = 68

x = 2 y

Hint: | Perform a substitution.

Substitute x = 2 y into the first equation:

{11 y = 68

x = 2 y

Hint: | Choose an equation and a variable to solve for.

In the first equation, look to solve for y:

{11 y = 68

x = 2 y

Hint: | Solve for y.

Divide both sides by 11:

{y = 68/11

x = 2 y

Hint: | Perform a back substitution.

Substitute y = 68/11 into the second equation:

{y = 68/11

x = 136/11

Hint: | Sort results.

Collect results in alphabetical order:

Answer: {x = 136/11 , y = 68/11

The sum of three numbers is 62. The second number is equal to the first number diminished by 4. The third number is four times t
alexdok [17]
Let the three numbers be x, y and z respectively, then
x + y + z = 62 . . . (1)
y = x - 4 . . . (2)
z = 4x . . . (3)

The above three expressions could be used to represent the numbers.

Solving the three equations, putting (2) and (3) into (1) gives
x + x - 4 + 4x = 62
6x - 4 = 62
6x = 62 + 4 = 66
x = 66/6 = 11
x = 11.
y = 11 - 4 = 7
z = 4(11) = 44

x = 11, y = 7, z = 44.
