Answer:

24 and 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

Let x be equal to the larger integer.

Let y be equal to the smaller integer.

<u>1) Construct equations</u>

  1. x+y=33 (The sum of two integers is 33)
  2. x=6+2y (The larger is 6 more than twice the smaller)

<u>2) Solve for one of the integer</u>

Isolate x in the first equation

x+y=33\\x=33-y

Plug the first equation into the second

33-y=6+2y

Combine like terms

33-6=2y+y\\27=3y\\9=y

Therefore, the smaller integer is 9.

<u />

<u>3) Solve for the other integer</u>

x+y=33

Plug in y (9)

x+9=33\\x=33-9\\x=24

Therefore, the larger integer is 24.

I hope this helps!

First we called x is the smaller number
next we have larger number is 2x+6
=>we have:2x+6+x=33
<=>x=9
so we have the larger number is 33-9=24

Jackson is two times older than Shelly. If the sum of their ages is 18, how old is Jackson?
salantis [7]
Answer: jackson is 12

explanation:
let the age be represented by x
jackson is 2 times older than shelly so
2x is jackson’s age and x is shelly’s age

since the sum of their ages is 18 then:
2x + x = 18

solve:
3x = 18 ➔ divide by 3 on both sides
x = 6

so now we know shelly is 6

jackson is 2 times older than her so:
2(6) = 12

Antonio is in a bowling league. His goal is to score an average of at least 100 points per game. His scores so far are 105,95,97
Vilka [71]
The answer would be 11.
He’s playing 6 games to meet his goal which is 600. Adding 105+95+97+82+110 you’ll have 489 total points. You’ll then subtract 600-489 which will equal to 111.
