Let's take the 2 numbers are a and b.
a + b =14
if a > b
a - 3b = -2
Subtract both numbers
4b = 16
b = 4
lesser number is 4.
Answer:
a=8b
Step-by-step explanation:
To do this we just need to isolate a
so we can multiply the equation by b
then we will get
a=8b
<span>(3b - 5x)(a +3) is the answer

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
5/8 +1/n = 7/8
1/n= -5/8 +7/8
1/n = 2/8
1/n= 1/2
then you would try to get n by itself
by dividing n/1 to 1/n and 1/2
