Answer:

x = 7 is the answer for the smaller number

7 + 1 = 8 is the answer for the larger number

Step-by-step explanation:

LET x and  x+1 be the two numbers here, as your hint suggests.

5x + 3(x+1) = 59

5x + 3x+3 = 59

8x = 59-3

8x = 56

/8      /8

--------------------------

x = 56/8 ---> x = 7

x = 7 is the answer for the smaller number

7 + 1 = 8 is the answer for the larger number

Check:

5 * 7 + 3 * 8 = 59

35 + 24 = 59

59 = 59 CORRECT

Work out the equation of the line which passes through the point (1,-2)and is parallel to the point y=x+4
dimaraw [331]

Answer:

y = x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Basically, if the lines are parallel, they have the same slope, right? So that part is already complete

And to get the rest of the equation, plug in the points -2 and 1 into the equation for the x values. Then set the equation to solve for b

After you do that you should get b = -3

The slope is 1 and the y-int is -3

Thank me later ;)
