Let the two numbers be represented by x and y respectively.

Then x + y = 23, and x - y = 5.  

Solve this system of linear equations for x and y.  Start by rearranging them vertically:

x + y = 23

x - y = 5

---------------   Combining the two equations eliminates y:

2x = 28.

Then x = 14.  If x = 14, then 14 + y = 23, and y = 9..

The solution is (14, 9);  that is, x = 14 and y = 9.

Answer:

The Alans's average for the course is 84.5

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given

There are 4 tests, A Term paper and a Final examination.

Score = 92, 78, 82, 90.

Term paper score = 80

Final examination score = 86

Weighted mean = ∑ w.f/∑w

     also the sum of all the weights is 100% = 1

weighted mean = 15%*92 + 15%*78+15%*82+15%*90+20%*80+20%*86/1

                         = 51.3 + 33.2

                         =  84.5

Therefore the Alans's average for the course is 84.5
