The larger of two numbers is five more than twice the smaller number. The sum of the two numbers is 38. Find the numbers.
Damm [24]

Answer:

I would set this up as:

let: lesser number = x

     greater number = 2x + 5

Restating the word problem:

lesser number + greater number = 38

        x           +  2x + 5             = 38

Solving:  3x + 5 = 38

                  - 5     -5

             ---------------

              3x      =  33

              ---          ---

               3            3

               x        =  11

Substitution for the greater number:

        2(11) + 5

          22    + 5

              27

Tema [17]

Answer:

1 cubic ft can also be 1728in3, or 0.03704 yd3

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the cubic feet of a square or rectangular shape, measure the length, width and height of the object in feet or inches. Once you have these three numbers, multiply them together to get the volume. If you measured in inches, divide your answer by 1728 to convert the measurement to feet.
