Let the numbers be x and y, then
2x + y = 47 . . . (1)
x + 3y = 56 . . . (2)

(2) x 2 => 2x + 6y = 112 . . . (3)

(1) - (3) => -5y = -65 => y = -65/-5 = 13
From (2), x + 3(13) = 56 => x = 56 - 39 = 17

The two numbers are 13 and 17.

If d = 2, what is the value of 8/4−d? 1 43 4 0
Arada [10]

To solve this plug 2 in for d in the equation like so:

\frac{8}{4} - 2

The fraction \frac{8}{4} can be simplified to 2.

How I found this:

The greatest common factor of 8 and 4 is 4.

If we divide 8 by 4 you get 2

If you divide 4 by 4 you would get 1

That gives you the simplified fraction:

\frac{2}{1} Which is the same as simply 2

Now we have the expression:

2 - 2

^^^ A number subtracted from itself is always zero

The answer is:

0

Hope this helped!
