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.

exercise alone. Two methods of collecting data have been proposed. Method I: Recruit volunteers who are willing to participate.
aniked [119]

Answer:

I) If method I is used, population of generalization will include all those people who may have varying exercising habits or routines.  They may or may not have a regular excersing habit.  In his case sample is taken from a more diverse population

II) Population of generalization will include people who will have similar excersing routines and habits if method II is used since sample is choosen from a specific population

Step-by-step explanation:

past excercising habits may affect the change in intensity to a targeted excersise in different manner. So in method I a greater diversity is included and result of excersing with or without a trainer will account for greater number of variables than method II.
