Translate into an equation, and find the two numbers.

the sum of two numbers is twelve. the total of three times the smaller and twice the larger is twenty-seven.

x = 3, y = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of two numbers is twelve.   x+y = 12

The total of three times the smaller and twice the larger is twenty-seven.

3x + 2y = 27

x + y = 12

3x + 2y = 27

We can use substitution. x + y = 12 , so y = 12 - x

3x + 2(12 - x) = 27

3x + 24 - 2x = 27

x = 27 - 24 = 3

x = 3

x + y = 12

3 + y = 12

y = 12 - 3 = 9

y = 9

step-by-step explanation:

plants store their excess carbohydrate in the form of starch so that it could be used as energy source later on. the excess carbohydrate is converted into starch in the plastid i.e. chloroplast & this process occurs in the presence of sunlight. it is an insoluble polymer of glucose which gets stored in cell organelles named as amyloplasts. in some plants, starch is also stored in roots and embryos.
