3x-11=17-4x add 4x to both sides
7x-11=17 add 11 to both sides
7x=28 divide both sides by 7
x=4
According to your question, there are 2 unknown numbers mentioned.
Let the 2 unknown numbers be represented by the variables x & y, then
x is considered to be one of the numbers being more than y by the addition of 4, .ie.
x = 4 + y --- (1)
The sum of the 2 numbers is 60, i.e.
x + y = 60 --- (2)
To find the smaller number, we solve eqn (1) & (2) using the concept of substitution, i.e. substitute 4 + y for x in eqn (2), i.e.
4 + y + y = 60
4 + 2y = 60
2y = 60 - 4
2y = 56
y = 28 ...Ans.
Recall that x is more than y by 4, then 28 is the smaller number.
Answer:
16 bombons de coco
Step-by-step explanation:
A partir da pergunta, somos instruídos a fingir que o número total de bombons (chocolate) que ela fez = 24 bombons
Do total de chocolates que ele fez, 2/3 são de coco.
Portanto, a quantidade que representa os doces de coco é representada como:
2/3 × 24
= 16
Portanto, a quantidade de bombons de coco = 16
