Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

x = 7 is the answer for the smaller number

7 + 1 = 8 is the answer for the larger number

Step-by-step explanation:

LET x and x+1 be the two numbers here, as your hint suggests.

5x + 3(x+1) = 59

5x + 3x+3 = 59

8x = 59-3

8x = 56

/8 /8

--------------------------

x = 56/8 ---> x = 7

x = 7 is the answer for the smaller number

7 + 1 = 8 is the answer for the larger number

Check:

5 * 7 + 3 * 8 = 59

35 + 24 = 59

59 = 59 CORRECT
