Respuesta :
Since the larger of two numbers is four more than the smaller, it means that there is a difference of 4 between the two numbers. In other words, you obtain the largest from the smaller by adding 4, or the smaller from the larger by subtracting 4.
In this case, we're given the larger, [tex] x [/tex]
So, to obtain the smaller, we must subtract 4 to get [tex] x-4 [/tex]
