Let x and y be the two unknown numbers. If one number, say x,is 5 more than 3 times another, say y, the equation would be

x = 5 + 3y

When their difference is 35, x-y = 35, since x is the much larger number here. We substitute x to solve for the smaller number, y.

x - y = 35
(5 + 3y) -y = 35
5 +2y = 35
2y = 35-5
2y = 30
y = 15

The larger number x would be
x = 5 + 3(15)
x = 50

The answer is 50.

PLEASE HELP ME WITH BOTH OF THESE PROBLEMS THIS IS DUE SOON PLEASE HELP ME
iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

4.

a)

P = 2width + 2length

8x = 2x + 2 length; 8x-2x = 2 length; 6x=2 length

length = 3x

b)

sides= 1/4 of 3x = 3x/4

perimeter of square = 4* side = 4*3x/4 = 3x

c)

x= 4

P rectangle =8x= 8*4= 32

P square = 3x = 3*4 = 12

32-12 = 20 cm greater is the P rectangle than P of square

d)

A rectangle = 2x*x = 2*4*4 = 32

A square =(3x/4)² = (3*4/4)² = 9

32-9 = 23 cm² greater is the A rectangle than A of square

5.

4Comic+1 Nonfiction

4comic = 8y so 1 comic = 2y

1 nonfiction = (3+7y)+ 2y

a)

1 nonfiction = 7y+2y+3 = 9y+3

b)

total= 8y+9y+3 = 17y+3

if y=4

total = 17*4 +3  = $71
