Answer:
We have that the sum of two numbers is 9
this can be written as:
x + y = 9
where x is the larger number.
Now we want to write:
"the difference between one more than the larger number and twice the smaller number"
First, remember that the difference between A and B is:
A - B
Then "the difference between one more than the larger number and twice the smaller number"
is:
"one more than the larger number" = ( x + 1)
"twice the smaller number" = 2*y
the difference between these is:
(x + 1) - 2*y
Now we can simplify:
We know that:
x + y = 9
then:
y = 9 - x
replacing that in the equation:
(x + 1) - 2*y
we would get:
x + 1 - 2*(9 - x)
x + 1 -18 + 2x
(x + 2x) + (1 - 18)
3x - 17
This means that we can write:
"the difference between one more than the larger number and twice the smaller number"
as: 3x - 17

Step-by-step explanation:
Hi i'd be glad to help you with this equation.
basically all we have to do is find (65%) of 455*.
65% of 455* = 295.75
Next.
455 + 295.75 = 750.75
So, to check my work I have 750.75 miles in total.
I have already driven 455 miles of 750.75 miles.
Using subtraction we subtract our distance from our total.
750.75 - 455 = 295.75
So, in total your answer to this problem is (295.75)
Hope this helps.
Have a great day!
