X + y = 27
x = y + 3
y + 3 + y = 27
2y + 3 = 27
2y = 27 - 3
2y = 24
y = 24/2
y = 12
x = y + 3
x = 12 + 3
x = 15
ur numbers are 12 and 15

Answer:
y = -13.5
x = -10.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi there!
Let the two numbers be equal to <em>x</em> and <em>y</em>.
The difference of two numbers is 3 ⇒ x - y = 3
Their sum is - 24 ⇒ x + y = -24
Solve using elimination:
x - y = 3
x + y = -24
Add the two equations:
x + x - y + y = 3 - 24
2x = -21
x = -10.5
Solve for y:
-10.5 - y = 3
- y = 3 + 10.5
y = -13.5
I hope this helps!
