<h3><u>The value of the smaller number is 31.</u></h3><h3><u>The value of the larger number is 43.</u></h3>
y = 12 + x
y + x = 74
Since we have a value for y, we can plug it into the second equation
12 + x + x = 74
Subtract 12 from both sides.
x + x = 62
Combine like terms.
2x = 62
Divide both sides by 2.
x = 31
Now that we have a value of x, we can plug it into the original equation to get a value for y.
y = 12 + 31
y = 43

Hey there!
Answer = -21
Explanation:
Let's solve your equation step-by-step.
x + 7 = -14
Subtract seven from both sides:
x + 7 - 7 = -14 - 7
x = -21
So therefore, that is how you found your answer: x = -21
The television set has a rectangular shape. The diagonal of this rectangle along with its width and length together form a right angular triangle.
This means that we can apply the Pythagorean theorem which states that:
(diagonal)^2 = (length)^2 + (width)^2
Let the width be w. We know that the length is 0.75 times the width, this means that: length = 0.75 w
Substitute in the above equation:
(20)^2 = (0.75w)^2 + (w)^2
400 = 0.5625 w^2 + w^2
400 = 1.5625 w^2
w^2 = 256
w = 16
This means that the width of the screen is 16 in.
