<u>Part 1)</u> "Four times the difference of a number and
is
"
Let
x--------> the number
we know that
the expressions is equal to

therefore
<u>the answer part 1) is</u>

<u>Part 2)</u> "One third of a number is
less than the number itself"
Let
x--------> the number
we know that
the expressions is equal to

therefore
<u>the answer part 2) is</u>

<u>Part 3)</u> "Ten increased by the quotient of a number and
is
"
Let
x---------> the number
we know that
the expressions is equal to

therefore
<u>the answer Part 3) is</u>

<u>Part 4)</u> "One less than the product of a number and
is
more than the number itself"
Let
x---------> the number
we know that
the expressions is equal to

therefore
<u>the answer Part 4) is</u>

Substitution
-2x+8=x^2-9x+18
x^2-7x+10=0
Factoring, we get
(x-5)(x-2)=0
x=5, x=2
If x equals 5,
y=-2(5)+8=
-10+8=
-2
Therefore, we derive our first solution:
<h2><u><em>
x=5,</em></u></h2><h2><u><em>
y=-2</em></u></h2>
Now we solve for our second x
If x=2,
y=-4+8=
4
Therefore, we derive our second solution:
<h2><u><em>
x=2</em></u></h2><h2><u><em>
y=4</em></u></h2>
<u><em></em></u>
