(m+3)square - (m-5) square

16m-16

Step-by-step explanation:

Im not sure that’s the correct answer

x = 7 is the answer for the smaller number

7 + 1 = 8 is the answer for the larger number

Step-by-step explanation:

LET x and  x+1 be the two numbers here, as your hint suggests.

5x + 3(x+1) = 59

5x + 3x+3 = 59

8x = 59-3

8x = 56

/8      /8

x = 56/8 ---> x = 7

x = 7 is the answer for the smaller number

7 + 1 = 8 is the answer for the larger number

Check:

5 * 7 + 3 * 8 = 59

35 + 24 = 59

59 = 59 CORRECT
