Answer:

x can be any real number.

Step-by-step explanation:

5x + 24 = 3(x + 8) + 2x

Expand using the rule:

x(y + z) = xy + xz

Hence,

5x + 24 = 3 \times x + 3 \times 8 + 2x

5x + 24 = 3x + 24 + 2x

5x + 24 = 5x + 24

Subtract 5x+24 from both sides:

0 = 0

This means that there are infinite solutions, and x can be any number.

The sum of two numbers is 53 and the difference is 11. What are the numbers?
vaieri [72.5K]
Let assume that the the two numbers are X and Y and that X is the large number.
According to the question, 
X + Y = 53 .................. Equation 1
then,  X = 11 + Y........... Equation 2
Substitute equation 2 into equation 1.
[11 + Y] + Y = 53
11 + 2Y = 53
2Y = 53 - 11 = 42
2Y = 42
Y = 42 / 2 = 21,
Therefore, Y = 21 [Small number].
According to equation 1, 
X +Y = 53
X + 21 = 53
X = 53 - 21 = 32.
Therefore, X = 32 [Big number].
