There are two consecutive odd numbers such that five times the smaller plus twice the greater is 25. What is the smaller number?
It's just 3m + 2. Now, if m stands for a particular number, it's 3 times the number, plus two.
The expression for "the sum of four times a number plus six times another number" can be mathematically represented as (4x + 6y), where (x) is the first number and (y) is the second number. This means you multiply the first number by four, the second number by six, and then add the two results together.
3
the number is 3 because 3 times 5 is 15 plus 2 is 17
the number is 10.
The number is 10
47.5
(-8,1)
So 5 must be the other two times the number which means the number is 2.5.
