2 equations: the first one is the sum of 2 unknown numbers x and y: x + y = 72. Now the difference is 25, so x - y = 25. Solve the first equation for y: y = 72 - x. Sub that into the second equation to solve for x: x - (72 - x) = 25. x - 72 + x = 25 and 2x - 72 = 25. Therefore, 2x = 97 and x = 48.5 That's the larger of the 2 numbers; since we subtracted y from x we defined x as the larger of the 2. Just for fun, plug x in to find that y = 23.5
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer are will not and below
Your answer is Y= 2x (a) + 4 (e)
The y intercept is 4 and the slope is 2
The equation: 6s - 10 = s
Add 10 to each side: 6s = s + 10
Subtract 's' from each side: 5s = 10
Divide each side by 5 : s = 2
