Answer:

Smaller number = 13

Larger = 67

Step-by-step explanation:

(13 x 5) + 2 = 67 + 13  = 80

So let’s start by turning this into an equation

We know that the sum of the two numbers equals 80, so we’ll put it as s (smaller) + l (larger) = 80

We know that l is 2 more than 5 times s

s x 5 + 2 = l

Now if we go through some numbers to replace s with, we can make an equation by finding a number that fits the equation, in this case s would equal 13

s + ((s x 5) + 2) = 80
13 + ((13 x 5) + 2) = 80
13 + (65 + 2) = 80
13 + 67 = 80

So our smaller number would equal 13
And our larger number would equal 67

Hope this helped! I find that it’s a lot of trial and error with this method but it’s very simple :)

A jewelry maker purchased 20 inches of gold chain.She used 3/8 of the chain for a bracelet. How many inches of gold did she have
Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

12.5 inches of gold chain.

Step-by-step explanation:

To get the remaining chain of gold we need to calculate

8/8 - 3/8 = 5/8 of 20 inches

then multiply:

20 * 5/8 =  100/8

100/8 = 12.5 inches

PLS HELP FAST I NEED IT
Gemiola [76]

Answer:

(b) 1:9

(c) 1:8

Step-by-step explanation:

(b) x*y : kx*ky, so 1:k² with k=3 is 1:9

(c) Assuming the rectangles get a z dimension, the volumes would have a ratio of xyz : xkykzk = xyz : xyzk³ = 1 : k³. With k=2 that is 1:8. But the z was never introduced so this is a bit inconclusive.

Number 8 please can you write and equation
tigry1 [53]
8.5x + 55 = 123

You would use the formula: mx + b = y

The slope is the amount of money each day(mx),and the y-intercept would be the fee(b) and the total cost would be y.
