Karolina [17]3 years ago
4 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

x = y - 3

Also,

6(y - 3) = 3y + 6

6y - 18 = 3y + 6

6y - 3y = 6 + 18

3y = 24

y = 24/3

y = 8

x = 8 - 3

x = 5

Therefore, the first number is 5 and the second number is 8.

AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

The last graph

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because when there is a greater than sign, the line on the graph is dotted and the shaded area is facing upwards. I try to remember that when there is a greater than sign or a greater than or equal to sign, the shaded area faces up towards the sky.

Hope this helps. Please inform me if my answer is wrong.
