The numbers are 105 and 50

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Let "x" be the first number

Let "y' be the second number

Twice a number plus twice a second number is 310

Therefore,

twice of x + twice of y = 310

2x + 2y = 310 ---------- eqn 1

The difference between the numbers is 55

x - y = 55 -------- eqn 2

<em><u>Let us solve eqn 1 and eqn 2</u></em>

From eqn 2,

x = 55 + y ------ eqn 3

<em><u>Substitute eqn 3 in eqn 1</u></em>

2(55 + y) + 2y = 310

110 + 2y + 2y = 310

4y = 310 - 110

4y = 200

<h3>y = 50</h3>

<em><u>Substitute y = 50 in eqn 3</u></em>

x = 55 + 50

<h3>x = 105</h3>

Thus the numbers are 105 and 50

3x – 4y&gt; -6<br> 2x + y&lt;7<br> y&gt;-3
Sloan [31]

For the 1st problem, solve the 2nd equation for x.

 

x = -1 - y

 

Now, replace x in the 1st equation with (-1 - y)

 

2(-1 - y) - 3y = 2

-2 - 2y - 3y = 2

-2 - 5y = 2

-5y = 4

y = -4/5

 

x = -1 - (-4/5) = -1 + (4/5) = -1/5

 

The solution is (-1/5, -4/5)

 

For the 2nd problem, multiply the top equation by 15 and the bottom equation by -12. That gives us:

 

10x - 12y = 15

-36x +12y = 84

Add the two together, which gives us:

 

-26x = 99

x = -99/26

 

Now, put this value of x into either equation to solve for y

 

3(-99/26) - y = -7

-297/26 - y = -7

-y = -7 + 297/26

-y = 115/26

y = -115/26

 

The solution to this system is (-99/26, -115/26)
