Let
x---------> the larger number
y---------> the smaller number
we know that
x+y=148------> equation 1
x=3y-2------> equation 2
substitute 2 in 1
[3y-2]+y=148--------> 4y=150---------> y=150/4------> y=37.5
x=3y-2----> x=3*37.5-2-----> x=110.5
the answer is
the larger number is 110.5
the smaller number is 37.5
Answer:
2x= 38.5
Step-by-step explanation:
I'm not sure where u got 12x but 2 x = 38.5:
2x + 5 =82
subtract 5 for 82
2x = 77
77 divided by 2 is 38.5
x = 38.5
hope this helps :)
Answer:
If you meant 4x to the third power, than x = 1.34
