Answer:

The smaller number is 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Larger number = x

Smaller number = y

Write 2 equations

y + 6 = x

2x = 5y

Substitute x in the first equation to the second equation

2(y + 6) = 5y

Multiply 2(y + 6)

2y + 12 = 5y

Subtract 2y from both sides of the equation

12 = 3y

Divide both sides of the equation by 3

y = 4

x = y + 6 = 4 + 6 = 10

The smaller number is 4

Hope this helps :)

3,4,5.

The last side is 10.

6+8+10=24

2. Point N

3. Three collinear points are points A, point N and point X

4. Two other names for V are quadrilateral and rectangle

5. No N, M, and X are in a different plane from R

6. Two rays are ray NR and ray NA

7. The pair of opposite rays with end point N are ray NA and ray NX and ray NM and ray NC

8. Three lines are shown in the figure

Step-by-step explanation:

1) A segment is a line portion with two end points

2) A point marks a position

3) Collinear points are points on the same line

3) A quadrilateral is a four sided figure while rectangle has 90° interior angles

4) A ray is an line extending from a point without ending

5) Opposite rays are rays extending from the same point but in opposite directions

6) A line is a straight one dimensional geometric figure  that has no width but infinite number of points extending without end in both directions
