X - y = 5,
x = 5 + y
substitute (x = 5 + y) into the first equation,
5 + y + 2y = -1
3y = -6
y = -2,
substitute y = -2 into (x - y = 5),
x + 2 = 5
x = 3
Hence, x = 3, y = -2
Hey there! :D
Make an algebraic expression.
Let the 'number' equal x.
4x-24= 60
Add 24 on both sides.
4x= 84
Divide both sides by 4.
x=21
The number is 21.
I hope this helps!

He would be spending less time because 2/3 is not a full number. Let's make an equation out of the: 2/3(m). Note: 3(2) means 3 times 2 and the m is the amount of miles biked last week. We could insert the number 3 to our equation. 2/3(3). Now if you do it the proper way, it is 2/3(3/1) and if you do the math it is 6/3 aka 2. And 2 is less than 3. So it is less time spent
The sum of a number.....means addition
ur expression would be : x + 21
