$x - \hbox{one number}\\
x+3 - \hbox{ the other number}\\\\
x+x+3=43\\
2x=40\\
\boxed{x=20}\\
\boxed{x+3=23}$

Answer:

$c=\frac{t-10}{m}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$t=10+cm$

Subtract 10 from both sides:

$t-10=cm$

Divide both sides by $m$ :

$\frac{t-10}{m}=c$

Placing $c$ on the left:

$c=\frac{t-10}{m}$

For example, if the total charge is $27.50 and the distance ridden is 250 mi, we can calculate the additional cost per mile, as such:

$c=\frac{27.50-10}{250}$

$c=0.07$
