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.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

jack=35

Hassan=x

x+35=255

255-35=$220 (It has to be x=)

So:

220/2=$110

Therefore:

Hassan=$110

Jack=$110+$35=$145 (because he had earned $35 more)

Given f(x) = x^2-2x+5<br> Find f(-2)
lbvjy [14]

Answer:

<h2>f(-2) = 13</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = x² - 2x + 5

Yo find f(-2) substitute the value of x that's - 2 into f(x) that is for every x in f (x) replace it with - 2

So we have

f( - 2) = (-2)² - 2(-2) + 5

= 4 + 4 + 5

= 8 + 5

We have the final answer as

<h3>f(-2) = 13</h3>

Hope this helps you
