Question 171078: The difference between two numbers is ten. Four times the larger decreased by 30 equals three times the smaller increased by twenty. What are the numbers? Answer by checkley77(12844) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! x-y=10 or x=10+y
4x-30=3y+20
4(10+y)-30=3y+20
40+4y-30=3y+20
10+4y-3y=20
y=20-10
y=10 ans.
x-10=10
x=10+10
x=20 ans.
4*20-30=3*10+20
80-30=30+20
50=50
