aApolynomial is an expression consisting of variables and coefficients, that involves only the operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication, and non-negative integer exponents of variables.

There are 3 sets of polynomials; LINEAR, QUADRATIC and CUBIC

Linear: $ax + b = 0$

Quadratic: $ax^2+bx+c=0$

Cubic: $ax^3 + bx^2+cx+d = 0$

The sum of two numbers is 46. The larger number is two less than three times the smaller number. Find the numbers.

melamori03 [73]

Answer: The numbers are: <u>x = 34, y = 12</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets say the numbers are x and y. The two equations are:

x+y=46

x= 3y-2

Next you use substitution for x in the first equation which brings you to

3y-2 + y = 46 which simplyfies to:

4y - 2 = 46

4y = 48

48 / 4 = 12

y = 12

Then you plug back y=12 in either of the equation to solve for x:

x = 3y - 2

x = 3(12) - 2 = 36 - 2 = 34

x = 34, y = 12

mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

x=6

Step-by-step explanation:

3х +5= 23

Subtract 5 from each side

3х +5-5= 23-5

3x = 18

Divide each side by 3

3x/3 =18/3

x = 6
