Answer: 21 & 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Sum of two numbers is 39

Difference is 3

Let the numbers be x & y

X+y=39........equation 1

X-y=3...........equation 2

X=3+y............equation 3

Substitute equation 3 into equation 1

(3+y)+y=39

3+y+y=39

3+2y=39

2y=39-3

2y=36

Y=36/2

Y=18

Substitute for y in equation 2

X-y=3

X-18=3

X=3+18

X=21

The two numbers are 21 & 18

Is point (2,1) on the the line represented by the equation x+2y=5
Sphinxa [80]
To check if this point lies on the line, plug in a 2 for x and a y for 1 and solve

x+2y=5
2+2(1)=5
4=5

Since this statement isn't true, then the point doesn't lie on the line

Hope this helps
