Answer:
Smaller number: 12
Larger number: 34
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the smaller number.
Let 3x - 2 represent the larger number (The larger number is two less than three times the smaller number, or x)
x + 3x -2 = 46
Add 3x + x:
4x - 2 = 46
Add 2 to both sides:
4x = 46 + 2
Add 46 + 2:
4x = 48
Divide both sides by 4:
4x/4 = 48/4
x = 12 is the smaller number
Since 12 is the smaller number, and the sum of the two numbers is 46, than the larger number must be 34.

The other form of circle equation is (x-a)2 + (y-b)2 = r2. a and b is the coordinate of the center and r is radius. So the equation is x2+(y-4)2=9. Change it to the general form is x2+y2-8y+7=0. So A=1, B=1, C=0, D=-8 and E=7.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
a)
The answer is greater than 450 because the percentage is less than 100%

Get x all alone on its own side:
x=16+5
x=21
Carl is 2 yrs older than bob. Because Alan+Carl is 2 more than Alan+bob
