4 0

Answer:

the first number is 5 the second number is 4

Step-by-step explanation:

first number = x

second number = y

X+2y=13 given this isolate x  x = 13-2y

2x+y=14 substitute 13-2y for x

2(13-2y)+y=14

26-4y+y=14

-3y=-12

y=4 taking this number substitute into either equation above

x+2(4)=13

x+8=13

x=5

A triangle has a perimeter of 3063 mi. The short side measures 79 mi less than the middle side, and the long side measures 376 m
almond37 [142]
X+y+z = 3063
y-79=x
z-376=y
z-455=x
z + (z-455)+ z-376 = 3063
3z-831= 3063
z = 1289
y = 913
x= 834
