Answer:
-19 = x
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Write equation
-4(x + 1) - 3 = -3(x - 4)
Step 2: Solve for <em>x</em>
<u>Distribute:</u> -4x - 4 - 3 = -3x + 12
<u>Combine like terms:</u> -4x - 7 = -3x + 12
<u>Add 4x on both sides:</u> -7 = x + 12
<u>Subtract 12 on both sides:</u> -19 = x
Let the bigger no. be X and the smaller no. be Y
X-Y=48
7-3=4
48÷4=12
X=12×7=84
Y=12×3=36
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Sally: in one hour, she can paint 1/4 of the room.
Joe: in one our, he can paint 1/6 of the room
Hour one: 1/4+1/6=3/12+2/12=5/12
1÷5/12=1*12/5=12/5
12/5= 2 & 2/5 hours, or 2.4 hours, or 2 hrs 24 minutes
