Answer: resource - trust me bro

Step-by-step explanation: Let x = the smaller numberLet 2x + 10 = the larger numberx(2x + 10) = 1002x^2 + 10x - 100 = 0Divide both sides of the equation by 2.x^2 + 5x - 50 = 0(x - 5)(x + 10) = 0x - 5 = 0 or x + 10 = 0x = 5 or x = -10, not a positive number2x + 10 = 2(5) + 10 = 20
