Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Givens
Let a = the first number
Let b = the second number
Equations
a + b = 39
b = 1/2 * a + 6
Put the second equation into the first one
a + 1/2 * a + 6 = 39 Simplify the left.
(3/2)a + 6 = 39 Subtract 6 from both sides
(3/2)a + 6 - 6 = 39 - 6 Combine
(3/2)a = 33 Multiply both sides by 2
3a = 33*2
3a = 66 Divide both sides by 3
3a/3 = 66/3
a = 22
b = 1/2 a + 6
a = 22
b = 1/2 * 22 + 6
b = 11 + 6
b = 17
Check
22 + 17 = 39
Answer:
r=-6
Step-by-step explanation:
Question: -3+r/3=-5
1) Multiply both sides of the equation by 3:
-9+r=-15
2) Add 9 to both sides:
r=-6
Footnotes:
1) In step 1 when I multiplied both sides of the equation by 3, don't forget you also have to multiply -3 by 3 because it is not part of the fraction (which is how I got -9)
