One number = x
Another number = y

x = y + 5
x + y = 37

(y + 5) + y = 37
2y + 5 = 37
2y = 32
y = 16

x = (16) + 5
x = 21

The numbers are 16 and 21.

bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

225 necklaces.

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming that they have the necessary amount of straws to match the beads then we can use the following simple equation to solve this problem.

t = b/12  ... where t is the total amount of necklaces and b is the number of beads you have

t = 2700 / 12

225 necklaces.

For 225 necklaces you would also need 1125 straws since each necklace requires 5 straws to be fully made. Therefore if you have this amount you should not run into any problems.

Illusion [34]

Answer:

8\%

Step-by-step explanation:

Since question already gives the number of dollars she will tip, I'm assuming it's asking for percent tipped.

Because the total is $75 and Theresa is tipping $6, she is tipping \frac{6}{75}=0.08 of the total. To convert this to a percentage, multiply by 100: 0.08\implies 0.08\cdot 100=\boxed{8\%}
