EXPLANATION:
-To formulate an equation, you must first know what data the exercise gives us to locate them correctly.
data:
-6 that must be added to a number.
-four times a number that is equal to 4x
-a result that is equal to 50
Now with these data we formulate the equation:
if we solve the equation we have:
ANSWER
EXPLANATION
Given information
The sum of the two numbers is 76
The larger number is 16 more than 2 times the smaller number
Let the two numbers be x and y
x ----> Larger number
y ----> smaller number
To find the value of x and y, follow the steps the below
Step 1: Write the algebraic expressions for the statement given
The sum of the two numbers is 72
Mathematically, this can be expressed as
Also, the larger number is 16 more than twice
