<h3>Answer:  24</h3>

Explanation:

x = smaller number

8x = larger number, since it's 8 times larger than the smaller

8x-x = 7x = difference of the numbers

That difference is 21, so we can say 7x = 21 which solves to x = 3

The smaller number is 3 and the larger is 8x = 8*3 = 24

As a check: 24-3 = 21, which confirms the answer.

X + y = 3 <br>-2x + 4y = 6
Finger [1]
I'm assuming this is a system of equations you want solved so,

x = -y + 3

-2(-y+3)+4y = 6
2y - 6 + 4y = 6
6y = 12
y = 2

x + 2 = 3
x = -1

Please help! you have to find the surface area of the inage below!
viva [34]
Your answer would be 64 in².

To find the surface area, you just need to find the area of each of the shapes shown and add them together.
We can find the area of one of the triangles by doing:
(base × height)/2
(6 × 4)/2 = 24/2 = 12

As there are 4 identical triangles, the area of all of them would be 12 × 4 = 48 in².

Now we need to find the area of the square in the middle, which would be 4 × 4 = 16 in².

Adding these together gives us 16 + 48 = 64 in²

I hope this helps!
