Question

hmmmmmmmmmmmm

Answer 1

let (x) be the first number, and let (y) be the second number:

The first number is 3 LESS than the second number so

x = y - 3

The twice the second number is 30 more than 4 times the first:

2y = 30 + 4(x)

Now plug in the x = y-3 into the second equation to solve for (y)

2y = 30 + 4(y - 3)

2y = 30 + 4y - 12

-2y = 18

y = -9

Remember x = y -3, so now we can solve for (x):

x = -9 - 3

x = -12

so your two numbers are -12 and -9

Answer 2

I concur with Hermeezey above.
