\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Actually, that question means that 3x+1=larger number and x=smaller number.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "8x-2(3x+1)=10. that is what it means.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Now I will solve it.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "8x-2(3x+1)=10
\n" ); document.write( "8x-6x-2=10
\n" ); document.write( "2x-2=10
\n" ); document.write( "2x=12
\n" ); document.write( "x=6\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The smaller number is 6, the larger number is 19\r
