Answer:
The equations which represents the situation are
1) 2Y+X=5 and
2) 5X-Y=3
Step-by-step explanation:
Given X= Smaller number and Y = larger number
Therefore the equation for the statement," twice a number added to a smaller number is 5" is 2Y+X=5
and the equation for the statement,"the difference of 5 times the smaller number and the larger number is 3" is 5X-Y=3
Thus the equations which represents the situation are
1) 2Y+X=5 and
2) 5X-Y=3
