The sum of two numbers is 77. The greater number is 5 more than the smaller number. Which equation can be used to solve for the
smaller number?
x(x − 5) = 77
x(x + 5) = 77
x − (x + 5) = 77
x + (x + 5) = 77
2 answers:
We can write a system of equations.
x + y = 77
y = x + 5
Plug in x + 5 into the first equation:
x + y = 77
x + (x + 5) = 77
So this is our answer.
Answer:
The answer is x + (x + 5) = 77 ( Option D)
