Find two numbers, if their sum is 93 and their difference is 9.

51 and 42

Step-by-step explanation:

Use

x + y = 93

x - y = 9

Add those two equations together and you get 2x = 102

*y is not in the equation anymore because y + -y = 0*

Divide both sides by 2

x = 51

plug x into one of the equations; let's use x + y = 93

Then you get, 51 + y = 93

Subtract both sides by 51 and you get y = 42

Plug both in the other equation to make sure the numbers work.

51 + 42 = 93; true

51 - 42 = 9; true

3. (5x + 1) - (-10x + 6)

simplify the answer choice. combine like terms. remember to distribute the negative to the terms inside the second parenthesis. also remember that two negatives = one positive, and one of each sign = negative.

- (-10x + 6) = + 10x - 6

simplify. combine like terms:

5x + 1 + 10x - 6

5x + 10x + 1 - 6

15x - 5

∴ it is your answer
