Answer:

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Multiply out the brackets

48x - 80 - 40x + 80 = 40 → negative + negative = positive [-10 x -8]

Step 2: Simplify                          

8x = 40 → collect like terms

Step 3: Solve

x = (40/8)

x = 5

the larger of two positive numbers is 5 more then the smaller. The product of the numbers is 66. find the numbers
Serjik [45]

Answer: 30.5 and 35.5

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use a system of linear equations to find out the answer to this problem. The larger number will be x and the smaller number will be y.

x=y+5

x+y=66

Substitute y+5 in for the bottom equation to get y+5+y=66. Simplify to get 2y+5=66. Subtract 5 from both sides and get 2y=61. Divide by 2 to get y=30.5. This is the smaller number. Add 5 to get the bigger number, which is 35.5
