Let,
the bigger number be "x"
the smaller number be "y"
Now, according to the question,
x + y = 24...........equation (1).............because the sum of numbers is 24
x - y = 15 .............equation (2)..................because their difference is 15
Taking equation (2),
x - y = 15
x = 15 + y ....................equation (3)
Now, Taking equation (1)
x + y = 24
(Substituting the value of "x" form equation (3) we get)
15 + y + y = 24
(Subtracting 15 on both sides, we get)
y + y = 24 - 15
2y = 9
y = 9 / 2
y = 4.5
Now,
Taking equation (3)
x = 15 + y
(Substituting the value of y , we get)
x = 15 + 4.5
x = 19.5
So, the two numbers are 19.5 and 4.5

Answer: 150%
Step-by-step explanation:
A store buys a television for $120.
The store then sells the television for $300.
The makeup is the amount they increased the cost price by to get to the selling price.
= 300 - 120
= $180
In percentage terms it is:
= 180/120 * 100%
= 150%

Answer:
Therefore the amount in the 4% savings account = $550
Step-by-step explanation:
i) the total amount = $1500
ii) let the amount placed in the 4% interest savings account = x
iii) let the amount placed in the 5% interest savings account = y
iv) therefore fro i) we can say x + y = 1500
v) the total interest gained = $69.5
vi) therefore we can write 0.04x + 0.05y = 69.50
vii) multiplying equation vi) with 100 we get 4x + 5y = 6950
viii) Multiplying the equation in iv) by 5 we get 5x + 5y = 7500
ix) Subtracting equation in vii) from equation in viii) we get x = $550
x) Therefore the amount in the 4% savings account = $550
