One number is 3 less than 4 times a second number. The difference of the first number and twice the second number is 7. What are the two numbers?

atq= let no.be x and y

x= 4y-3(1)

x-2y=7(2)

subtracting both eqn

x-x+2y=4y-3-7

2y=4y-10

-2y= -10

y=5 second no.

first no...x=7+2y=7+10=17first no

i got 86 for this

hope this !

if you need an explanation just ask

the ratio of white tiles to blue tiles is 48: 16. the ratio in it's simplest form is 3: 1.

step-by-step explanation:

ratio: take the first number and add a colon next to it, then add the second number after that. make sure the ratio order matches up with the written problem!

simplest form: we can simplify the ratio 48 : 16 by dividing both terms by the greatest common factor (gcf).

the gcf of 48 and 16 is 16.

divide both terms by 16:

48 ÷ 16 = 3

16 ÷ 16 = 1

reducing to simplest form:

48 : 16 = 3 : 1
