X=27 and y=11
if you let each number equal x and y we know the sum is 38 so x+y=38
and the smaller is 16 less than the larger
. so if we say the smaller number is 7 then x-16=y
these can be solved as a simultaneous equation. x+(x-16)=38
2x-16=38
2x=54
x=27
(27)-16=y
y=11
so the answer is x=27 y=11

Answer:
2.4 hr. = time working together
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = time working together
x/6 = work done by Martin
x/4 = work done by Victor
Martin's part + Victor's part = 1 jog done
x/6 + x/4 = 1 Multiply thru by 12
2x + 3x = 12
5x = 12
x = 2.4 hr.
