Explain how you can write an equation for the given situation in standard form. One number is 5 more than a second number. The product of the two numbers is 891. A) Let x be the smaller number, and then x+5 is the larger number. This means that x(x+5)=891, which can be rewritten as x^2+5x-891=0

B) Let x be the smaller number, and then x+5 is the larger number. This means that x+(x+5)=891, which can be rewritten as 2x-886=0

C) Let x be the smaller number, and then x+5 is the larger number. This means that x(x+5)=891, which can be rewritten as x^2+5x+891=0

D) Let x be the smaller number, and then x+5 is the larger number, This means that x+5/x=891, which can be rewritten as 890x-5=0
