Answer:

11 and 33

Step-by-step explanation:

The greater of two numbers is 3 times the smaller.

Let the numbers be

n and 3n

sum is 44

n + 3n = 44

4n = 44

Divide both sides by 4

n = 11

3n = 3 * 11

3n = 33

Answer:

smaller number is 11

bigger number is 33.

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets make the smaller number be a, the bigger number 3a since its 3 times a's value

the sum of a and 3a is 44

so we write

a+3a = 44

combine like terms

a+3a = 4a

4a = 44

divide both sides by 4

a = 11.

Now we know the smaller number is equal to 11, but we are not done just yet.

We have to find the value of the bigger number by plugging in 11 into our equation

11+3*11 = 44

11 + 33 = 44

which means the bigger number is 33

A gym membership charges $100 for a start up fee and $40 a month for
slamgirl [31]

The equation that represents the cost of membership is  $100 + $40c

The cost of 1 year membership is $580.

The number of months you have paid for is 9 months.

<h3>What is the equation that represents the cost of the gym membership?</h3>

The cost of gym membership is the sum of the fixed cost and the variable cost. The fixed cost is the start-up fee while the variable cost is the cost per month.

The equation that represents the cost of the gym membership is: c = $100 + $40m

Where m represents the number of months

The cost of 1 year membership =  $100 + $40(12)

$100 + $480 = $580

How many months would $460 cover = ($460 - $100) / 40 = 9 months
