Answer:

The smaller Number = 15

The larger number = 67

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

The smaller number = x

The larger number = 5x - 8

The sum = 82

(5x - 8) + x = 82

5x - 8 + x = 82

6x - 8 = 82

Add eight to both sides

6x - 8 + 8 = 82 + 8

6x = 90

Divide both sides by 6

x = 90/6

= 15

Therefore,

The smaller number = x = 15

The larger number = 5x - 8

= 5(15) - 8

= 75 - 8

= 67

As AB and ED are parallel, they have the same slope. This means that since lines that are colllinear with parallel segments are parallel, lines l and m are parallel.

8 There are a combined 33 students who play a spring sport of track or
Rzqust [24]

The number of students that are on the track team are 18.

The number of students that are on the baseball team are 15.

<h3>What are the linear equations that represent the question?</h3>

a + b = 33 equation 1

a - b = 3 equation 2

Where:

  • a = number of students that are on the track team
  • b = number of students that are on the baseball team

<h3>How many students that are on the baseball team?</h3>

Subtract equation 2 from equation 1

2b = 30

Divide both sides by 2

b = 30/2 = 15

<h3>How many students that are on the track team?</h3>

Subtract 15 from 33: 33 - 15 = 18
