X= larger number
x-6= smaller number

x + (x - 6)= 62
combine like terms

2x - 6= 62
add 6 to both sides

2x= 68
divide both sides by 2

x= 34 larger number


SMALLER NUMBER
x - 6= 34 - 6= 28


ANSWER: The smaller number is 28 and the larger number is 34.

Hope this helps! :)

Use the counting techniques from the last chapter. A bag contains three red marbles, four green ones, one fluorescent pink one,
sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

The probability that she gets all the red ones, given that she gets the fluorescent pink one, is P=0.0035 or 0.35%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Susan grabs four marbles at random.

We have to calculate the probabilities that he picks the 3 red ones, given that she already picked the fluorescent pink.

If it is given that the fluorescent pink is already picked, we are left with three red marbles, four green ones, two yellow ones, and four orange ones. A total of 13 marbles.

The probability that the second marble is red is 3 in 13.

The probability that the third marble is also red is 2 (the red marbles that are left) in 12 (the total amount of marbles left), as there is a picking without replacement.

The probability that the fourth marble is 1 in 11.

Then, the probability that the 3 red marbles are picked, is:

P=P_1\cdot P_2\cdot P_3=\dfrac{3}{13}\cdot \dfrac{2}{12}\cdot \dfrac{1}{11}=\dfrac{6}{1716}=0.0035

3.27x+1.28y+1.83x−2.77y
Firdavs [7]

Answer:

5.1x - 1.49y

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to add or substract like terms.

like terms are the terms that have the same variable, in this case:

3.27x and 1.83x are like terms, and adding them we get:

3.27x + 1.83x = 5.1x (you add only the coefficients and the x stays the same)

we do the same for the terms with 'y':

1.28y and −2.77y are like terms, but in this case we must substract because of the − sign:

1.28y −2.77y = -1.49y

the final answer is the conjunction of the two results that we obtained:

5.1x - 1.49y
