One number is five more than another, and their sum is three less than three times the smaller. find the numbers.

if x represents the smaller number, which equation could be used to solve for x?

a. x 2 + 5 = 3x - 3
b. 2x + 5 = 3x - 3
c. 2x + 5 = 3(x - 3)

Find the value of x for which the lines are parallel.

Juliana says that she can use the patterns of equivalent ratios in the multiplication table below to write an infinite number of ratios that are equivalent to 6: 10. which statement explains whether juliana is correct? she is correct because she can multiply 6 and 10 by any number to form an equivalent ratio. she is correct because 6: 10 can be written as 1: 2 and there are an infinite number of ratios for 1: 2. she is not correct because the multiplication table does not include multiples of 10. she is not correct because 6: 10 is equivalent to 3: 5 and there are only 9 ratios in the multiplication table that are equivalent to 3: 5.

A33 gram sample of a substance that's used to detect explosives has a k-value of 0.1473. n = noekt no = initial mass (at time t = 0) n = mass at time t k = a positive constant that depends on the substance itself and on the units used to measure time t = time, in days
