The larger of two numbers is 1 more than twice the

Mathematics

stellarik [79]3 years ago

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

Let the smaller number be x and the larger number be 2x+1.

According to the question,

The sum of the numbers is 20 less than three

times the larger.

i.e x + (2x+1)= 3*(2x+1) - 20

or, x + 2x +1 = 6x + 3 -20

or, 3x + 1 = 6x - 17

or, 3x = 18

or x= 18/3

x = 6

And 2x+1 = 2*6+1 = 13.

Therefore the smaller number is 6 and larger number is 13.

Hope it helps!

Alecsey [184]
R = 16 according to the problem, so the total amount of income will be:
$20*16 + $15*(40 - 16)
= $320 + <span>$15*(24)
= </span>$320 + <span>$360
= $680
that is the income, but the expenses are $275 so the total revenue is the subtraction of those two
total revenue = $680 - $275
= $405</span>

they will fill 23 baskets. we get this by adding the number of golf balls each of them get to get the total number of golf balls. then, we divide the total number of golf balls by 34 because that's how many they will be able to put into each basket. it will look a little like this: 408+374=782

782/34=23 baskets
