Answer:

The equations are [tex]y = x -3\texttt{ and }y=\frac{x+9}{3}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be y and larger number be x.

A number, y, is equal to the difference of a larger number and 3.That is

           y = x -3

The same number is one-third of the sum of the larger number and 9. That is

          [tex]y=\frac{x+9}{3}[/tex]

So the equations are [tex]y = x -3\texttt{ and }y=\frac{x+9}{3}[/tex]
