Answer:
12 and 28
Step-by-step explanation:
Represent the numbers using x and y. Then y - x = 16. (y is the larger one.)
Then 3y = 7x, and y = (7/3)x.
Substituting (7/3)x for y in y - x = 16, we get:
(7/3)x - x = 16.
Eliminate the fraction by multiplying all three terms by 3:
7x - 3x = 48, or 4x = 48, yielding x = 12. Then y = (7/3)(12) = 28.
2(x)^2 - 2(x) - 12 = ?
2(x)^2 - 2(x) - 12
(x)^2 - 6 - x
Multiply ↪1 (-6) = -6
1 + -6 = -5 , right?
-3 + 2 = -1, right?
After we have pulled out the like terms we have to add/subtract! x(x) - 3
Search for the common denominator
2(x) - 3
You can add up 4 for your terms
x + 2 (x - 3)
Make sure you solve this↪ 2 = 0
x + 2 = ?
x + 2 = 0
We have found the first; x = -2
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Since, this one has a single variable, I'll make the step easier and quicker
Solve this part ↪ x-3 = 0
If we had the number 3 to your sides we would have found the outcome of the next x
So, the second x is 3
So, therefore your answer would have to be x =-2 ; x = 3 (most likely option C.)
The answer is -2. The line is going from left to right which makes it negative. Then if you look at the line and do change in y(rise) over change in x(run).
