-3|2x + 6| = -12
|2x + 6| = -12/-3 = 4
2x + 6 = 4 and 2x + 6 = -4
2x = 4 - 6 = -2 and 2x = -4 - 6 = -10
x = -2/2 = -1 and x = -10/2 = -5
x = -1 and x = -5

natima [27]

Answer:

The larger number is 96.

Step-by-step explanation:

$let \: the \: two \: numbers \: be \: a \: and \: b \\ a + b = 110 \\ let \: a \: be \: the \: larger \: number \\ a = 7b - 2 \\ we \: can \: get \: the \: value \: of \: b \: by \: substituting \: the \: value \: above \: for \: a \: in \: eq \: 1 \\ 7b - 2 + b = 110 \\ 8b - 2 = 110 \\ 8b = 110 + 2 \\ 8b = 112 \\ b = \frac{112}{8} \\b = 14\\ calculate \:the \: value \: of \: a \: using \: the \: equation \: above \\ a + b = 110 \\ a = 110 - 14 \\ a = 96 \\ hence \: the \: large \: number \: is \: 96$
