Answer 1

Answer:

Original number = 38

Step-by-step explanation:

10*x + y

x   = y - 5

10y + x = 2 (10x + y) +  7

10y + y - 5 = 2(10(y - 5) + y) + 7

11y - 5 = 2(10y - 50 + y ) + 7

11y - 5 = 2(11y - 50) + 7

11y - 5 = 22y - 100 + 7

11y - 5 = 22y - 93

11y + 88 = 22y

88 = 11y

y = 8

x = y - 5

x = 8 - 5

x = 3

So the original number is 38. Does that work?

3 is 5 less than 8.

83 = 2*38 + 7

83 = 76 + 7

83 = 83.         Yes it works.
