X = 7 + 2y
x - y = 22

7 + 2y - y = 22
y = 15

x = 7 + 2(15)
x = 7 + 30
x = 37

Answer:

The value of the larger number is 37 .

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume that the first number be u.

Let us assume that the second number be v.

As given

One number is 7 more than twice another.

Than the equation becomes

u = 7 + 2v

As given

If their difference is 22 .

Than the equation becomes

u - v  = 22

Than two equations are

u = 7 + 2v and u - v  = 22

Put u = 7 + 2v in equation u - v  = 22 .

7 + 2v - v = 22

7 + v = 22

v = 22 - 7

v = 15

Put the value of v in the equation u = 7 + 2v .

u = 7 + 2 × 15

u = 7 + 30

u = 37

Therefore the value of the larger number is 37 .

A community bike ride offers a short 5.7 mile ride for children and families. The short ride is followed by a long ride, 5 2/3 T
defon
First multiply 5.7 by 5 2/3 to figure out how long the adult ride is: 5.7/1 X 17/3= 32.3. Then add the adult ride and the children's ride together: 5.7+32.3=38 (7+3=10 which adds 1 to the whole number). The mom would ride 38 miles :)

I need help for both of these !

4. \frac{w+3}{2}<-8
First, you can multiply both sides of the inequality by 2 to cancel out the fraction to get:
w+3<-16
Then subtract 3 from both sides to get:
w<-19 
Above is your answer

5. h≤\frac{6h+3}{5} 
Like we did in the first one, multiply by 5 on both sides to get: 
5h≤6h+3
Then subtract 6h from both sides to get
-1h≤3
Divide by -1 into both sides, and when you divide or multiply an inequality by a negative number, you flip the sign, so you would get
h≥-3
Above is your final answer

Hope this helped!
