Answer:
x = 4/3
y = 1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
System of equations! This is set up really well to make the second equation equal x then substitute.
x - y = 1
x = 1 + y
and then our substitution:
2 (1+y) + y = 3
and solve:
2 + 2y + y = 3
3y + 2 = 3
3y = 1
y = 1/3
And now we can substitute that value into one of our equations:
x - (1/3) = 1
x = 4/3
Next we should check by substituting these values into both of our equations:
2 (4/3) + (1/3) = 3
9 / 3 does equal 3 !
(4/3) - (1/3) does equal 1 !
Therefore, x = 4/3 , and y = 1/3
Answer:
x = 114
Step-by-step explanation:
180 - 105 = 75
39 + 75 = x
x = 114
X, y - the numbers
The sum of the two numbers is 9.

If one number is subtracted from the other, the result is 3.

Solve the system of equations:

The numbers are 6 and 3.
Answer:
x <= 0 or 1 = < x <= 5.
Step-by-step explanation:
First we find the critical points:
x(x - 1)(x - 5) = 0
gives x = 0, x = 1 and x = 5.
Construct a Table of values:
<u> x < 0 </u> <u>x = 0 </u> 0<u>< x < 1</u> <u>1 =< x <= 5</u> <u>x = 5</u>
x <0 0 >0 <0 0
x - 1 <0 -1 >0 <0 0
x - 5 < 0 0 > 0 <0 0
x(x-1)(x-5) < 0 0 >0 <0 0
So the answers are x =< 0 or 1 =< x <= 5.
