Answer:
8, 13
Step-by-step explanation:
The given relationships can be put into two equations. Let x and y represent the numbers.
x + y = 21 . . . . . their sum is 21
y = 4x -19 . . . . .one is 19 less than 4 times the other
__
Substituting for y in the first equation, we get ...
x + (4x -19) = 21
5x = 40 . . . . . . . . . add 19
x = 8 . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 5
y = 4(8) -19 = 13
The two numbers are 8 and 13.
