Answer:

The numbers are 36 and 42

Step-by-step explanation:

Represent the two numbers  by m and n, m being the larger number and n the smaller.  Then

m = n + 6.  also, 7n = 6m

Substitute n + 6 for m in the second equation:  7n = 6(n + 6).

Performing the indicated multiplication, we get 7n = 6n + 36, or n = 36.

Then m = n + 6, which here is m = 36 + 6 = 42.

The numbers are 36 and 42.

Each bottle costs seven dollars. Two of them would cost $14 and three would cost $21. Buying three bottles, the amount is $21 which exceeds $16. Therefore, a $5 discount will be given. Subtracting $5 from the $21 will give $16. You have just enough amount to buy THREE bottles of olive oil.

katrin [286]

Let the number of green apples bought be x


Green apples = x

Red apples = 2x

Yellow apples = 1/3 (2x) = 2/3 x


Total = 22 apples

x + 2x + 2/3 x = 22

11/3 x = 22

11x = 66

x = 6


Green apples = x = 6

Red apples = 2x = 2(6) = 12

Yellow apples = 2/3 (2x) = 2/3 (6) = 4


Answer: Green = 6, Red = 12, Yellow = 4
