9 - x < 8 => -x < 8 - 9 => -x < -1 => x > 1
9 - x > 3 => -x > 3 -9 => -x > -6 => x < 6
So the number is between 1 and 6, notation 1 < x < 6

Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we are decreasing the number so it has to be a decrease.
Next, we divide 7/31 and get around 0.23, which also represents 23 percent.
This only shows that 7 is 23 percent of 31, so we need to find the decrease by seeing the difference of 100 and 23.
We get 100 - 23 = 77, and because it is a decrease we get B.
Answer:
the larger number is 69
the smaller number is 16
Step-by-step explanation:
x is the smaller number
y is the larger number
x + y = 85
y - 4x = 5
y = 5 + 4x
x + 5 + 4x = 85
5x = 80
x = 16
y = 69
