Answer:50.18
Step-by-step explanation:
8x+17+9x+11=102
17x+28=102
-28. -28
17x=74
<CAD=9x+11=50.18
x=74/17
[Given]
{ x + y = 6
{ x = y + 4
[Plug-in our x value & solve]
[Given] x + y = 6
[ Plug-in] (y + 4) + y = 6
[Distribute] y + 4 + y = 6
[Combine like terms] 2y + 4 = 6
[Subtract 4 from both sides] 2y = 2
[Divide both sides by 2] y = 1
[Answer]
Third option - (5, 1)
-> You do not need to solve for x since this is the only option that has y = 1, but to solve for x we would do y + 4 = 1 + 4 = 5, so this answer fully checks correctly

2x - 15
15 is decreased that is the key word here which indicates subtraction.
twice a number with given variable x is 2x
subtraction always goes behind so 2x - 15
