Q) the difference between two numbers is 5.
A. If the large number is k, what is the other number?
B. Write a simplified expression for the product of both numbers.
ty in adv.
a. k-s=5
or s=k-5
b. ks=s(k-5)
since s=k-5, the product is
ks = k(k-5)
or
s(s+5)
A) To find the other number, we know that the difference between the two numbers is 5. Let's assume the larger number is k. If we subtract 5 from k, we will get the smaller number. So the other number can be expressed as k - 5.
B) To find the product of both numbers, we can multiply them together. The two numbers can be represented as k (the larger number) and (k - 5) (the other number). So the simplified expression for the product of both numbers is k * (k - 5).
