Answer:
1. The larger number is 2x + 7. The smaller number is x.
Let x be the smaller number
(7 + 2x) + x = 43
Since they are all in addition, we can get rid of the parenthesis.
7 + 2x + x = 43
2x and x are similar variables, we can add them both together.
7 + 3x = 43
7 + (-7) + 3x = 43 + (-7)
3x = 36
3x/3 = 36/3
x = 12
Let's check
[7 + 2(12)] + 12
(7 + 24) + 12
31 + 12 = 43
Answer:
25 - 3x^5
Step-by-step explanation:
-2x^4+16+2x^4+9-3x^5
Combine like terms
-2x^4+2x^4+9+16-3x^5
0 + 25 -3x^5
Just substitute 32 for p in the equation
3(32)+2=m
96+2=m
M=98
Answer:
Hello,
the above question requires more information for anyone to be able to answer.
In the abscence of that, the total weight of the two heaviest peaches can be obtained by simply summing the individual weights of the two heaviest peaches.
If for instance there are 13 peaches and the two heaviest peaches weight 5Kg and 5.5 kg respectively, the weight of the two would translate to the following:
Step-by-step explanation:
5 +5.5= 10.5Kg
Cheers!

Explanation:
Okay so Jack started with 50 chocolates, and ended with 2.
The simple way to calculate it would be by realising that Jack only distributed 48 chocolates. We can find how many times 3 fits into 48 by dividing <span>48÷3=16</span>.
Using algebra, we substitute the value we want to find with x. Here what we want to find is the number of friends that were at Jack's party.
We know that he started with 50 chocolates, then distributed <span>3×</span> the number of friends present (which is x).
We write that down as <span>50−3x</span>
(It's minus because when chocolates are distributed, Jack is taking away from what he has.)
We know that after this, there were only 2 chocolates left, so it's
<span>50−3x=2</span>
Then we proceed by moving all the numbers to the right until only x is left:
<span>−3x=2−50</span>
<span>−3x=−48</span>
<span>x=<span><span>−48</span><span>−3</span></span></span>
<span>x=16</span>
Conclusion: The number of people that attended the party was 16
