Pls help me out i rlly want to impress my parents after this test.. Select the correct answer from each drop-down menu.
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 = 33, 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 (3, 5, 7, 9). So, the smaller number is (3,5,7,9) and the larger number is ( 24, 26, 28, 30)
