One number is 4 plus one half of another number. Their sum is 31. Find the numbers.

18, 13

Step-by-step explanation:

x=4+1/2y

x+y=31

4+1/y+y=31

3/2y=27

y=18

x=31-18=13

13 & 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Create the formulas:

0.5x+4=y

x+y=31

0.5x+4=y

Multiply both sides by 2

x+8=2y

x+y=31

Subtract 31 from both sides

x+y-31=0

Subtract y from both sides

x-31= -y

Multiply both sides by -1

-x+31=y

Multiply both sides by 2

-2x+62=2y

Combine equations:

-2x+62=x+8

Add 2x to both sides

62=3x+8

Subtract 8 from both sides

3x=54

Divide both sides by 3

x=18

0.5x+4=y

Subtract y from both sides

0.5x-y+4=0

Subtract 0.5x from both sides

-y+4= -0.5x

Multiply both sides by -1

y-4=0.5x

Multiply both sides by 2

2y-8=x

x+y=31

Subtract y from both sides

x= -y+31

Combine equations:

2y-8= -y+31

Add y to both sides

3y-8=31

Add 8 to both sides

3y=39

Divide both sides by 3

y=13

part a

in a city ice cream is mostly only bought when the temperature is very high as ice cream cools down our

so we can derive the conclusion that as the temperature increases the number of ice creams sold also increases

part b

y intercept is 5

slope is 2
