1st number = x
2nd number = y
2x + y = 26
-
x + y = 10
x = 16
26 - (2 x 16) = -6
10 - 16 = -6
Number 1 is 16
Number 2 is -6
Answer: the two numbers are 7 and -27
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the two numbers be a and b
From the question,
a + b = -27.......eqn 1
a - b = 41............eqn 2
Sum the two equations
2a = 14
Divide both sides by 2
a = 14/2; a = 7
Substitute a = 7 into equation 2
a - b = 41
7 - b = 41
Make b the subject of the equation
-b = 41 -7
-b = 34
b = -34
Check:
a + b = -27, slot the values of a and b
7 + (-34) = -27
7- 34 = -27
I hope this is clear, please mark as brainliest answer
Answer:
Consecutive odd integers are 19 , 21 & 23
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the first 3 consecutive odd intergers be x , (x + 2) and (x + 4).
According to the question,


Eliminating 2x from both the sides,



So, the consecutive odd integers are = 19 , 21 & 23.
Answer:
35
Step-by-step explanation:
what I did was add GJ together and imaged it in my head to see if it would fit... I'm not sure tho
It’s s=-2 and s=2 because the absolute value makes both of the numbers be positive so either way it’s going to be 2+4=6
