The larger of two numbers is 33 more than the smaller. When added together, the sum of the larger number and five times the smaller number is 129. What are the two numbers? larger number = ___ smaller number = Please Help!

Larger number: 49.

Smaller number: 16.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say that the larger number is represented by y, and the smaller is represented by x.

y = 33 + x

y + 5 * x = 129

(33 + x) + 5x = 129

6x + 33 = 129

6x = 96

x = 16

y = 33 + 16

y = 49

Check our work...

49 + 5 * 16 = 49 + 80 = 129

49 = 33 + 16 = 49

Since it all works out, the larger number is 49 and the smaller number is 16.

Hope this helps!

the answer is; biodiversity resulting from few ancestors

adaptive radiation occurs when a population is subjected to a large natural environment with spatial ecological variations. the parts of the population in the different ecologies begin to adapt to their local environments. due to non-random mating across the large populations, this causes the different populations from the large population to speciate within their local environments. they, therefore, diverge to different species sharing a common ancestor.
