Answer:
Step-by-step explanation: Let x be the smaller and y be the largest number.
Since x+y=13, we deduce y=13-x
Now, for the translation: "two more than the larger number" is y+2 , while "twice the smaller" is 2x
Their sum is y+2+2x
And since we know that y=13-x, we have y+2+2x=13-x+2+2=15+x
2(3x+4y) = 2(24)
6x+8y = 48
Add both the equations
6x + 8y = 48
+ x - 8y = -20
—————————
7x = 28
x = 28/7
x = 4
Plug in this value in the second equation
(4) - 8y = -20
-8y = -24
y = -24/-8
y = 3
Therefore:
x = 4
y = 3
Answer:
1 2/21
Step-by-step explanation:
We start out with:
3/7 + 2/3
In order to add them together, they must have an equal denominator. An easy way to find an equal denominator is the cross method. We divide 7 by 3 and 3 by 7, giving us a denominator of 21:
3/21 + 2/21
But what about the numerators? You do the same thing as before (multiplying by the other's denominator). Now we have:
9/21 + 14/21
We add both together (the denominator stays the same) and we get 23. 23/21 is correct but not in simplest form. We remove 21 from the numerator (because it is a whole) and finally get:
1 2/21!

Answer: 
Step-by-step explanation:
Let "x" represents the 16% of 43 minutes.
Once you analize the information given in the exercise, you can identify that 43 minutes is the 100%.
Then, with this data, you can set up the following proportion:
Now you must solve for "x". The steps are:
- Multiply both sides of the equation by "x"
- Multiply both sides by 43:
- Divide both sides by 100:
- Rounding to the tenths place:
