Answer:

You can try to write two equation from the question

Call x a number and y the other.

The sum of them is 44: x + y = 44

The difference (substract) is 2: x - y = 2

System:

x+y=44

x-y = 2

You can just sum both equations, as the y disappear:

2x = 46

x =46/ 2 = 23

We replace in the equation:

23 - y = 2

y = 21

And we know the numbers are 21 and 23

Answer:

21 & 23

Step-by-step explanation:

44 ÷ 2 = 22

Answer:

-102.4 = v

Step-by-step explanation:

Please use elimination<br> 3х - бу = 18<br> 2x + 2y = 6
Molodets [167]

Answer:

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

3x - 6y = 18

2x + 2y = 6 -> 3(2x + 2y = 6)

3x - 6y = 18 -> Cross out - 6y

6x + 6y = 18 -> Cross out + 6y

9x = 36 -> Divide 9 on both sides.

X = 4

What is the explicit formula for the sequence 3, 7,
balu736 [363]

Answer:

an = 4n - 1

a1 = 3

a2 = 7 = 3 + 4

a3 = 11 = 3 + 4.2

a4 = 15 = 3 + 4.3

a5 = 19 = 3 + 4.5

.....

=> this is a arithmetic with a1 = 3 and d = 4

=> an = 3 + 4(n - 1) = 4n - 1
