Answer:
See below.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the smaller integer be n.
Then the larger integer is n + 2.
"When the smaller integer is added to three times the larger integer, the result is two less than five times the smaller integer."
The correct equation is:
n + 3(n + 2) = 5n - 2
His mistake is not using parentheses on the left side. Since he left out the parentheses, the left side is not "the smaller integer added to three times the larger integer", but rather it is "the smaller integer added to 2 plus 3 times the smaller integer."
n + 3(n + 2) = 5n - 2
n + 3n + 6 = 5n - 2
4n + 6 = 5n - 2
8 = n
n = 8
n + 2 = 10
The integers are 8 and 10.
Alright, so the first thing I would do is find the LCM of the dividends, which is 20. So we have 10 15/20 and 6 16/20. You can either leave it there and just carry the one (20 in this case) for 3 19/20.
If you multiply 10 by 20 and add 15, or 6 by 20 and add 16 (which I think is easier) you get 215/20 - 136/20 = 79/20. It can be simplified from here if you teacher wants it in the future.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation: one angle is 6x + 9 also equals to 9x -30
9x - 30 = 6x + 9
3x = 39, x = 13
Angle is 6×13+9 = 87
9/10 : 1/10 = 45,000,000 : x
x = 45000000/9 = 5,000,000
