The sum of 2 consecutive numbers is 43. what are the numbers

an

y = 6x -3y -12

y +3y +12 = 6x

=> . x = { 2y / 3 +2 } this is equation of line in terms of x

=> . if line meets the x-axis the co-ordinates of meeting point would be ( x , 0 )

=> . x = 2 ( 0 ) / 3 + 2

=> . x = 2

so, the point is ( 2 , 0 )

this may not be at all, but i use the same website you're using for school, and if i'm stuck doing one of these i try to look for it on the section.
