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

What is the value of C in the matrix equation below?
lara [203]

Given:

The matrix equation is:

\begin{bmatrix}-18&3&5\end{bmatrix}-C=\begin{bmatrix}-22&1&12\end{bmatrix}

To find:

The value of matrix C.

Solution:

Let A=\begin{bmatrix}-18&3&5\end{bmatrix},B=\begin{bmatrix}-22&1&12\end{bmatrix}. Then the given equation can be rewritten as

A-C=B

-C=B-A

C=-(B-A)

C=A-B

On substituting the values of the matrices, we get

C=\begin{bmatrix}-18&3&5\end{bmatrix}-\begin{bmatrix}-22&1&12\end{bmatrix}

C=\begin{bmatrix}-18-(-22)&3-1&5-12\end{bmatrix}

C=\begin{bmatrix}-18+22&2&-7\end{bmatrix}

C=\begin{bmatrix}-4&2&-7\end{bmatrix}

Therefore, the correct option is C.
