7

A number is 5 more than 3 times another number. The sum of the two numbers is 33. As an equation, this is written x + 3x + 5 = 3

3, where x represents the smaller number. Plug in the numbers from the set {3, 5, 7, 9} to find the value of x.
The value of x that holds true for the equation is?
So, the smaller number is?
and the larger number is?

Step-by-step explanation:

the numbers : x, y

x = 5 + 3y

x + y = 33

when using the first equation in the second we get the mentioned equation (it does not matter which of the 2 numbers is x and which is y, it can all be vice versa, as you can see) :

5 + 3y + y = 33

5 + 4y = 33

4y = 28

y = 7

so, when you try the numbers above in the unsimplified equation, you will also find that 7 is the right answer.

the other number is based on my equations (with the reversed names) :

x = 5 + 3y = 5 + 3×7 = 5 + 21 = 26

the smaller number is 7.

the larger number is 26.

How did you do 2 step equations but in a word problem? Thankyou

Answer:

A example:  A customer brought 5 quarts of lemonade from Leah's stand. She also tipped Leah an additional $2. The customer finally paid a total of $27 including the tip. How much is each quart of lemonade worth? If x is what the lemonade is worth, write an equation to figure out the total.

In this problem, the x is what the lemonade is worth. So you should start with a 5x. The customer also tipped $2. So you should add 2 to the 5x. We also know the total, 27.

With the information we can form an equation.

5x + 2 = 27.

To solve, we can subtract 2 from both sides and finally dived by 5 on both sides as well. Your final answer should be x = 5.

Hopefully this is what you're looking for, sorry for being late!
