Answer:
bigger number is 18
smaller number is 6
Step-by-step explanation:
let x be the bigger number and y the smaller
the sum of two numbers is the same as four times the smaller
x+y=4y
x=4y-y
x=3y--------i
if twice the larger is decreased by the smaller, the result is 30
2x-y=30----ii
substituting i for x in ii
2(3y)-y=30
6y-y=30
therefore
5y=30
y=30/5
y=6------iii
substituting iii for y in i to solve for x gives
x=3*6
=18

N I G G E RStep-by-step explanation:
Hi there, first we change the mixed numbers into improper fractions, 9 5/9=86/9 and 6 5/6=41/6. Second, we solve the problem now. 86*6-41*9÷9*6, 516-369/54=147/54. Third, we simplify 147/54 into 49/18. Fourth, we make 147/54 into a mixed number. 147/54 as a mixed number is 2 13/18
As written here, both choices B and C represent proportional relationships:
... B. y = 12x
... C. y = 3x
_____
One key to a proportional relationship is that when one variable is zero, so is the other. This will not be the case for selections A and D.
Not c it is b that is the answer it is B
