Answer:
I can help you but first I need the rest of the answers to find out what's it equivalent to.
A=4-3b
subtract 4 from both sides
a-4=-3b
divide by -3 for both sides
(a-4)/-3 = b
Let’s give these two numbers variables
Let ‘a’ be the larger number
Let ‘b’ be the smaller number
Now from the question we know:
a + b = 30 or a = 30 - b
2a - 3b = 5
Now, let’s plug the first equation into the second to find ‘b’:
2(30 - b) - 3b = 5
60 - 2b - 3b = 5
60 - 5b = 5
55 = 5b
b = 11
Now we solve for ‘a’:
a = 30 - b
a = 30 - 11
a = 19
Now the question asks for the positive difference between the two numbers, so:
a - b = ?
19 - 11 = 8
Hope this helps!
Answer:
Is this a complete question?
Answer:
there both the same number its just that one is on top and the other is on bottom
