Answer:

X = 51

Y = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

2 numbers: (Larger) Number 1 is x and Number 2 is y

The equation is x + y = 63

  • x = 3y +15
  • y = y

New equation is:

  • 3y + 15 + y = 63

Combine like variables:

  • 4y + 15 = 63

Solve:

  • 4y + 15 - 15 = 63 - 15
  • 4y = 48

Divide 4 from each side:

  • <em><u>y = 12</u></em>

To find x fill in the variables from the 'x =' equation:

  • x = 3y + 15
  • x = 3( 12) + 15
  • <em><u>x = 51</u></em>

I would say that the results of the study are not significant. This is because the difference of those who drink tea and did not drink tea is small and more or less will have the same values at some points of the research.

How do I determine the coefficient?
Advocard [28]

Answer: You determine the coefficient by looking to see if there is a number in front of a variable. If there is a  number in front of the variable, then that is the coefficient. The coefficient is the number, and the variable is the letter.
