Answer:
We have that the sum of two numbers is 9
this can be written as:
x + y = 9
where x is the larger number.
Now we want to write:
"the difference between one more than the larger number and twice the smaller number"
First, remember that the difference between A and B is:
A - B
Then "the difference between one more than the larger number and twice the smaller number"
is:
"one more than the larger number" = ( x + 1)
"twice the smaller number" = 2*y
the difference between these is:
(x + 1) - 2*y
Now we can simplify:
We know that:
x + y = 9
then:
y = 9 - x
replacing that in the equation:
(x + 1) - 2*y
we would get:
x + 1 - 2*(9 - x)
x + 1 -18 + 2x
(x + 2x) + (1 - 18)
3x - 17
This means that we can write:
"the difference between one more than the larger number and twice the smaller number"
as: 3x - 17
First, you should combine the x terms:
-3x - 7 = 29
Then, get rid of the negative 7, by adding 7 to both sides.
-3x = 22
Finally divide 22 by -3, to solve for x.
x = -22/3 or -7.33

Remark
Read the following carefully.
There is a beautiful theorem that has to do with the endpoints of two angles sharing the same endpoints.
To be a little clearer, I hope, that makes < BAC = <BDC because both angles have B and C as their endpoints inside the circle. Make sure you understand that statement before moving on.
For this problem <BDC = <CAB = 33 degrees.
That means that ADC = 37 + 33 = 70
Solution
<ADC and CBA are opposite angles.
That means that they add to 180
From the above statement in the Remark section <ADC = 37 + 33 = 70 degrees <ABD + <DBC = <ABC = m + 71
<ABC + ADC = 180
m + 71 + 70 = 180 Combine
m + 141 = 180 Subtract 141 from both sides.
m+141-141= 180 - 141 Combine
m = 39
Answer: m = 39
