Call the number : x
(1/3)x + 5 = x-6
=> (1/3)x + 5 - (x-6) = 0
=> (1/3)x + 5 - x + 6 = 0
Group (1/3)x with -x, 5 with 6
=> [(1/3)x - x] + (5+6) = 0
=> (-2/3)x + 11 = 0
=> (-2/3)x = -11
=> x = -11 : (-2/3) = 33/2.
Recheck : 1/3 x 33/2 + 5 = 33/6 + 5 = 63/6 = 21/2
33/2 - 21/2 = 12/2 = 6 (21/2 is 6 less than 33/2, satisfied.)
welll i kinda don get ur question but ummmm if u say like the graetest number then 48

Answer:
y=-8
x=-7
Step-by-step explanation:
x-2y=9 x=2y+9
3x-5y=19
3(2y+9)-5y=19
6y+27-5y=19
y+27=19
y=-8
x=2(-8)+9=-16+9=-7
