The numbers are 5 and 12.
Smaller number = x
Larger number = y
x +y =17
y = 3x - 3
x +3x -3 = 17
4x = 20
x = 5
smaller number is 5
y = 3(5) - 3
y = 12
larger number is 12.

Write an equation to represent the following statement.
svetoff [14.1K]

Answer/explanation:

60=5k 

Is the equation because the word is means equals, so we add an equal sign after the 60. Five times greater simply means multiply so we multiply 5 and k.

To solve the equation, you would need to divide both sides by 5 to isolate the variable

60/5=5k/5

12=k
