Question

A certain number is three more that five times another number. The difference of the two numbers is 11

Answer 1

Answer:

The number would be 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

I set up an equation 5x+3, and x. So since it's a difference we know that we have to subtract, so I subtracted the two expressions, and set that equal to 11.

Solve 5x+3-x=11

Answer 4x=8, x=2
