Answer: 18 and 32

Step-by-step explanation: The first thing you want to do is create a system of equations.

Let's use x to represent one number and y to represent the other.

So, we know that x+y=50 and x-y=14.

We can manipulate the second equation, making it x=y+14 by adding y to both sides. Then, now that we have an equivalent to x, we can plug it into the first equation to solve for y.

(y+14)+y=50

2y+14=50

2y=36

y=18

x+18=50

x=50-18

x=32

x=32, y=18

ratelena [41]

Answer:

p(blue or red) = 0.52 = 52%

Step-by-step explanation:

total number of marbles = 7 + 10 + 14 + 19 = 50

number of blue marbles = 7

number of red marbles = 19

number of blue or red marbles = 7 + 19 = 26

p(blue or red) = 26/50

p(blue or red) = 0.52 = 52%
