n → smaller

20 - n → larger

4 (20 - n) = 5n - 1

80 - 4n = 5n - 1

81 = 9n

n = 9

20 - n = 11

Therefore, the numbers are 9 and 11.

Your larger number is 11 and your smaller one is 9. You solve this by first dividing 20 in half. Then you make one larger than the other by subtracting 1 from one 10 and adding adding that subtracted 1 to the other 10. Then you multiply 11 by 4 (11×4) and get 44 then multiply 9 by 5 (9×5) and get 45. Then subtract 44 from 45 (45-44) and the difference is 1.

What is the equation of the graphed line written in standard form? 2x – y = –4 2x – y = 4 y = 2x – 4 y equals StartFraction one-

svp [43]

Answer:

The answer is "2x-y=4"

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

$2x-y=-4\\2x-y=4\\y=2x-4\\y=\frac{1}{2}(x-4)\\$

The Formula of Slope:

$m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

by replacing the (2,0) and (0,-4) coordinates in the above formula:

$\to m= \frac{-4-0}{0-2}\\\\ \to m= \frac{-4}{-2}\\\\ \to m= \frac{4}{2}\\\\ \to m= 2\\\\$

if point y intercepting in x then x=0, for this the value of x= 0 and c=-4.

Equation of the line:

$\to y=mx+c$

apply m and c value in the above equation:

$\to y=2x-4\\$

Subtract by 2x on both sides of the equation we get:

$\to y-2x= 2x-4-2x\\\\\to y-2x=-4\\\\\boxed{\boxed{2x-y=4}}\\\\$
