Hi there! The smallest number is 7 and the largest number is 14.

Let the smallest number be represented by X.
The largest number is therefore equal to X + 7.

Now we can set up and solve an equation.
x + x + 7 = 21

Collect terms
2x + 7 = 21

Subtract 7 from both sides.
2x = 14

Divide both sides by 2.
x = 14 \div 2 = 7

Hence, the smallest number is 7 and the largest number is 7 + 7 = 14.

50% because you first subtract the original price from the new price so 126-84 equals 42 then you divide that by the original price 84 which will give you .5 which turns to 50%

Explain why their are no solutions to the system of inequalities <br> y ≤2x-5 <br> y ≥2x+1
rosijanka [135]

Answer:

Sorry this is late and I think this is right.

They are both parallel, they have the same slope, and do <em>not </em>intersect. If you were to draw a slope out for it, you would find this to be true.

For example: Say the question called for you to explain why there aren't any solutions to these system of inequalities:

<em>y < - 1/2x -3</em>

<em>y > 1/2x + 2</em>

<em>y= -x/2 -3</em> and <em>y= -x/2 + 2 </em>have the same exact slope, are parallel, and never intersect. The first line is 5 units below the second line when x = 0. Because the lines are parallel, it is always below the second line. The solutions of y < - x/2 -3 are the points in the plane below the first line. The solutions of y > 1/2 + 2 are points above the second line.

I hope this helps you. Good luck on whatever you're working on and stay safe! Please let me know if this helped you or didn't.
