The fraction would be 37 out of 42. You basically divide the two and get something around 88%.
The larger number is 30.
Set up your equation.
x + y = 25
The question tells us one number is 5 less than the other.
The equation now becomes
x -5 = 25
Add 5 to each side to isolate x.
x=30
The probability would be 1/2
Answer:
x = -3/2
Step-by-step explanation:
4(x + 3) = 6
4x + 12 = 6
4x = 6 - 12
4x = -6
x = -6/4
x = -3/2
