No she is not correct if she said 200+20+23 was the same as 200+40+3 she would have been correct.
The answer to number 1 is subtract 5 from 24 to get 19, then multiply 19 by 2 to get 38 as your final answer. I hope this helps!
Answer:
the two numbers are 14 and 19
Step-by-step explanation:
x + y = 33
x - y = 5 ⇒ x = y + 5
substitute x = y + 5 in x + y = 33
y + 5 + y = 33
2y + 5 = 33
2y = 33 -5
2y = 28
y = 28/2
y = 14
x = 14 + 5
x = 19
