Answer:

<u>The smaller number is 8 and the bigger number is 13</u>

<u>The correct equation form is B. 2x + 5 = 3x - 3</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Smaller number = x

Bigger number = x + 5

Sum of the numbers = x + x + 5 = 3 - 3x

Let's solve the equation for the sum:

x + x + 5 = 3x - 3

2x + 5 = 3x - 3

2x - 3x = - 3 - 5 (Subtracting 5 at both sides)

-x = - 8

x = 8 (Multiplying by - 1 at both sides)

<u>The smaller number is 8 and the bigger number is 13</u>

<u>The correct answer is B. 2x + 5 = 3x - 3</u>
