Whenever a problem says "one number" and "another number" we can substitute x and y. for this we have x=2y+1 and xy=1. since we know the value of x (2y+1) we can substitute it for the other equation to get (2y+1)y=10. simplify to get 2y^2+y=10. from here you can do a few methods to solve this, but the simplest in my opinion is by factoring. 

In order to factor it must be equal to 0, so we have 2y^2+y-10=0. We factor this and get y=5 (we also get y=-4 but it is an extraneous root). now we can plug that into either equation and find that x=2.

this means our two numbers are 5 and 2

The measure of angle D is 5 times the measure of angle E. The two angles are supplementary. Find the measure of each angle
steposvetlana [31]
Angle e = x        angle d = 5x    supplementary means they add up to 180
x + 5x =180
6x = 180
6x/6 = 180/6
x = 30
so angle e = 30 and angle d = 5(30) = 150
