One number added to three times another number is 45. Six times the first number added to two times the other number is 62. Find the SMALLER of the two numbers.

the smaller number is - 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the smaller number

Let y represent the larger number.

One number added to three times another number is 45. This is expressed as

x + y = 45

Six times the first number added to two times the other number is 62. This means that

6x + 2y = 62 - - - - - - - - - - - -1

Substituting x = 45 - y into equation 1, it becomes

6(45 - y) + 2y = 62

270 - 6y + 2y = 62

- 6y + 2y = 62 - 270

- 4y = - 208

y = - 208/-4

y = 52

x = 45 - y = 45 - 52

x = - 7

left 3, up 4

step-by-step explanation:

just count the values of x & y of the vertex of the graph and see how many units in the x and y direction will get you from the f(x) graph to the f(x) graph

x= 149. 24+7=31. 180-31=149
