Answer: 2x+5 = 50
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the total length of the piece of wood is 50" long. If the wood is sawed into two pieces, let's say the length of the two wood pieces are 'x'and 'y'.
This means x + y = 50... (1)
If one piece is 5" longer than the other, it can be written as;
y = x+5... (2) (this means wood of length y is 5" longer than that of wood of length x. To write the problem as an equation, we will substitute equation 2 into 1 to have
x + y = 50
x + (x+5) = 50
2x+5 = 50 (The will be the required equation where x is the length of the shorter piece of wood)

Answer:
Even if the numbers can be used more than once, this is still no solutions sice all answers will get you to 22 instead of 24.
Answer:
