Let's have the first number, the larger number, be <em>x</em>. We'll have the second, smaller number be <em>y</em>.
We know that x = y + 6, since x is 6 greater than y.
We also know that 330 = x + y.
Because x = y + 6, 330 = y + 6 + y, which simplifies to 330 = 2y + 6.
Now all we need to do is simplify the equation. First, we subtract 6 from both sides:
330 - 6 = 324
2y + 6 - 6 = 2y.
So we have 324 = 2y. Then we divide both sides by 2 to get:
162 = y
Plug in y = 162 into the equation x = y + 6 to get:
x = 162 + 6
x = 168
Let's check to make sure our answer is right. 168 is 6 more than 162. 162 + 168 equals 330. So our two numbers are 168 and 162.
Answer:
Video Games = $5.25
Movies = $1.25
Step-by-step explanation:
(3x + 5y = 30)2
6x + 2y = 18
Video Games (y) = 5.25
6x + 10y = 60
<u>- 6x + 2y = 18 </u>
(8y)/8 = (42)/8
<u> </u>
6x + 2(5.25) = 18
6x + 10.5 = 18
6x = 7.5
x = 1.25
Double Check by plugging in the numbers
