Write an equation or expression for each statement
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "\"one number is 11 more than another number.\"
\n" ); document.write( "From this statement we can say:
\n" ); document.write( "x = another number
\n" ); document.write( "and
\n" ); document.write( "(x+11) = one number
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( " Find the two number if
\n" ); document.write( "\" three times the larger exceeds four times th smaller number by 4.\"
\n" ); document.write( "3(x + 11) = 4x + 4
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "3x + 33 = 4x + 4
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "33 - 4 = 4x - 3x
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "x = 29
\n" ); document.write( ";
\n" ); document.write( "The two numbers are 29 & 40
\n" ); document.write( ";
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Check solutions using the statement:
\n" ); document.write( "\"three times the larger exceeds four times th smaller number by 4.\"
\n" ); document.write( "3(40) = 4(29) + 4
\n" ); document.write( "120 = 116 + 4
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "How about this? Did this simplify things for you? \n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
