Call the numbers s for the smaller number and l for the larger. From the problem statement, s + l = 35 and l = 2s + 7. From the first of these equations, s = 35 - l. Substituting this expression into the second equation yields: l = 2(35 - l) + 7. Multiplying out yields: l = 70 - 2l + 7. Adding like terms after collecting the terms with "l" on the left yields: 3l = 77 or l = 77/3. Then from the first equation s = 35 - 77/3 = 28/3
The Roman Numeral L is equivalent to the number 50.
by switching the truth values of the hypothesis and conclusion, it is called the contrapositive of the original statement. The contrapositive of a true conditional statement will also be true, while the contrapositive of a false conditional statement will also be false.
L is the Roman numeral for 50.
