x ,y are the numbers
x = 5y-3
x+y = 27
substitute first equation into the second
(5y-3) +y =27
combine like terms
6y-3=27
add 3 to each side
6y=30
divide by 6
y=5
x = 5y-3
x=5*5-3
x=22
the two numbers are 22 and 5

Step-by-step explanation:
slope = - 
calculate the slope m using the gradient formula
m= (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )
with (x₁, y₁ ) = (0, 4) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (- 3, 6)
m =
=
= -
