Answer 1

Answer:

50

Step-by-step explanation:

This is the equation:
x = 5 + 3y
We know that:
x - y = 35

Meaning we only need to solve for y now:

(5 + 3y) - y = 35
5 + 2y = 35
2y = 30
y = 15

Meaning the final formula is

x = 5 + 3(15)
x = 50

Answer 2

Let's set some variables before we solve:

• First number ⇒ x
• Second number ⇒ y

Okay's lets read the question

• 'x' is 5 more than three times 'y'

           ⇒ $x = 3y +5$

               ⇒ $x-3y=5$

• Their difference is 35

           ⇒ $x - y = 35$

Let's put the two equations together and solve

  $x-3y=5 --equation1$

  $x-y=35 -- equation2$

 (equation2) - (equation1)

  $2y = 30\\y = 15 -- equation 3$

  (equation 3)'s value of y into (equation2)

  $x - 15= 35\\x = 50$

Thus: $x = 50$ and $y = 15$

The larger number is 50

Answer: 50 or Choice 3
