In each of the following pairs of numbers, how much larger is the first number than the second? a. 154 and 27 b. 25 and 12 c. 135 and 127 d. 46 and 24

a. 154 is larger than 27 by 127.

b. 25 is larger than 12 by 13.

c.135 is larger than 127 by 8.

d.46 is larger than 24 by 22.

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract second number from the first number.

a. 154 and 27

Difference=

Hence, 154 is larger than 27 by 127.

b. 25 and 12

Difference=

Hence, 25 is larger than 12 by 13.

c. 135 and 127

Difference=

Hence, 135 is larger than 127 by 8.

d. 46 and 24

Difference=

Hence, 46 is larger than 24 by 22.

infinitely many solutions

step-by-step explanation:

we have been given the equation;

2(2x + 3) = -4 + 2(2x + 5)

we need to determine the value of x.

2(2x + 3), we expand this expression to obtain 4x + 6

similarly 2(2x + 5) will become 4x + 10

now we have;

4x + 6 = -4 + 4x + 10

4x + 6 = 4x + 10 - 4

4x + 6 = 4x + 6

the expression on the left hand side is identical to the one on the right hand side. therefore, we are looking at just a single straight line whose equation is;

y = 4x + 6

consequently, we shall have infinitely many solutions
