Answer:

The larger number is 96.

Step-by-step explanation:

$let \: the \: two \: numbers \: be \: a \: and \: b \\ a + b = 110 \\ let \: a \: be \: the \: larger \: number \\ a = 7b - 2 \\ we \: can \: get \: the \: value \: of \: b \: by \: substituting \: the \: value \: above \: for \: a \: in \: eq \: 1 \\ 7b - 2 + b = 110 \\ 8b - 2 = 110 \\ 8b = 110 + 2 \\ 8b = 112 \\ b = \frac{112}{8} \\b = 14\\ calculate \:the \: value \: of \: a \: using \: the \: equation \: above \\ a + b = 110 \\ a = 110 - 14 \\ a = 96 \\ hence \: the \: large \: number \: is \: 96$

Use the number line below, where RS = 5y + 2, ST = 3y + 6, and RT = 48

tekilochka [14]

RS+ST= RT

(7Y+3)+(2Y+9)= 14Y-8

9Y+12=14Y-8

5Y=20

Y=4

Examine the system of equations.

11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

<h3><u>Explanation</u></h3>

Given the system of equations.

$y = - \frac{1}{4} x - 2 \\ x = 4$

Substitute x = 4 in the first equation.

$y = - \frac{1}{4} (4) - 2 \\ y = - 1 - 2 \\ y = - 3$

We have both x and y values. Therefore, we can answer in coordinate point form.

<h3><u>Answer</u></h3>

<u> $\large \boxed{(4, - 3)}$ </u>
