Answer:
diameter
Step-by-step explanation:
<span> Let x be the smaller number.
Then 3x is the larger number.
We also know that the smaller added to the larger is 52, or:
x + 3x = 52
4x =52
x = 13
Therefore the smaller is 13, the larger is 3(13)=39. </span>
Answer:
17
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
3n - 4 = 8 ( add 4 to both sides )
3n = 12 ( divide both sides by 3 )
n = 4
Thus
5n - 3 = 5(4) - 3 = 20 - 3 = 17
