x + y = 14
3x + 2y = 33
x = 5
y = 9

What if the difference between two numbers is sixteen three times the larger number is seven times the smaller what are the numbers?
12 and 28
The sum of two numbers is fifteen. Three less than five times the smaller is equal to the larger.?
The numbers are: 3 and 12
The difference of two numbers is 14 three times the larger number is 45 less than four times the smaller what are the two numbers?
Call the unknown numbers s and l for smaller and larger respectively. From the problem statement, l - s = 14 and 4s - 3l = 45. Transpose the first equation to result in l = 14 + s and substitute this into the second equation to result in 4s - 3(14 + s) =45, or 4s - 42 - 3s = 45. or s = 45 + 42 = 87. l is then 101.
Three times a smaller number is the same as the larger number decreased by 1. If The sum of 2 numbers is 29. find both numbers?
3x = y-1x + y = 29From the first equation, y = 3x+1Plugging into the second equation:x + 3x + 1 = 294x+1=294x=28x=7plugging that into the second equation,7 + y = 29y = 223(7)=(22)-121 = 21, and the first equation checks as well. ■
What are the numbers missing in this equation 18-45-63?
This is a set of three numbers. It is NOT an equation. There is nothing missing from a non-existent equation.
What is a group of three smaller numbers in a larger number?
that is the dumbest question ever

The difference of two numbers is 75. The larger number is three less than four times the smaller number. Find the numbers.?
101 and 26
The sum of two numbers is 4 less than twice the larger. if the larger is decreased by three times the smaller the result is -20 find the numbers?
Let X be the larger number and Y be the smaller number. So, X + Y = 2X - 4 and X - 3Y = -20 (1) Rearrange the first equation to get the variables to one side: X - 2X + Y = -4 -X + Y = -4 (2) Next solve simultaneously with the other equation. Add equations together to eliminate X. -X + Y = -4 X - 3Y = -20 ------------------- -2Y = -24 Y = 12, and substituting this value into the first equation and solve for X to get X = 16

There are two numbers with the LCM of 72 the smaller number is nine the GCF of the two numbers is three and their sum is between 30 and 40 what is the larger number?
35 i do not really no
