The larger of two numbers is 9 more than twice the smaller The sum of the numbers is 3 less than five times the smaller?
Let's see.
If the smallest number is x, then the largest one is 2x + 9. Then,
x + 2x + 9 = 5x - 3 (we assume that this is true)
3x + 9 = 5x - 3 subtract 5x and 9 to both sides
-2x = -12 divide by -2 to both sides
x = 6
Since x = 6, then 2x + 9 = 2(6) + 9 = 12 + 9 = 21.
check:
6 + 21 = 5(6) - 3 ?
27 = 30 - 3 ?
27 = 27 True

Two angles are complementary the measure of the larger angle is twice the measure of the smaller angle find the measure of the larger angle?
the larger angle is 60 and the smaller angle is 30.complimentary angles are 2 angles forming 90 degrees.
The difference between two numbers is 11 Twice the smaller number plus three times the larger number is 123?
L = S + 11; 2S + 3(S + 11) = 123, ie 2S + 3S + 33 = 123ie 5S = 90 ie S = 18 and L = 29
The difference of two positive numbers is 16. One number is 3 times the other. Find the two numbers?
If the higher is 3 times the lower, the difference must be twice the lower so the numbers are 8 and 24.
How many ways can a pair of integers be selected from the integers 1 to 99 so that the difference between them is 10?
If the order of the pairs of numbers doesn't matter (that is the pairs (1, 11) and (11, 1) are considered the same) then there are 89 such pairs.If the order does matter (that is the pairs (1, 11) and (11, 1) are considered different) then there are 178 such pairs.There must be one number larger than the other.The smaller number must be at least 1, so the larger number must be at least 11.The larger number must be at most 99, so the smaller number must be at most 89.Thus, looking at the smaller numbers, it can be one of the numbers 1 to 89 - a total of 89 possibilities - each of which has a corresponding larger number.Therefore there are 89 combinations of 2 integers from the number 1-99 that have a difference of 10.If however, the order of the integers is important, then the smaller number can be the first number or second number, which means that there are twice as many possible pairs, giving 178 permutations of 2 integers from the numbers 1-99 that have a difference of 10.

How do their areas compare when one rectangle is twice as long as the other?
Area of a rectangle is Base(B) times Height(H).Area of smaller rectangle is BH.Area of larger rectangle is 2BH.Area of larger rectangle is twice as large as the smaller rectangle.
The sum of two odd numbers is 46 The larger number is more than twice the smaller number Find the numbers?
If the larger number can be anything more than twice the smaller number, then the two numbers can be:1 + 45 = 463 + 43 = 465 + 41 = 467 + 39 = 469 + 37 = 4611 + 35 = 4613 + 33 = 4615 + 31 = 46
The sum of two numbers is twenty-one Twice the larger number is four times the smaller number Find the two numbers?
One number is 7, the other is 14. 7 + 14 = 21 4(7) = 2(14)
