The numbers are "x" and "y",
we suggest this system of equations.
x+y=24
x-y=15
solve by reduction method.
x+y=24
x-y=15
-----------------
2x=39 ⇒x=39/2=19.5
x+y=24
-(x-y=15)
-------------------
2y=9 ⇒y=9/2=4.5
The numbers are 19.5 and 4.5
To check
19.5+4.5=24
19.5-4.5=15

Answer:
BC = 9
Step-by-step explanation:
Given AC = 26
BC=7x + 2
AB = 9x + 8
Since BC and AB are two parts of AC. Therefore we can write in the following form.
AC = AB +BC
Now insert the given values in the above formula.
26 = 9x + 8 + 7x + 2
26 = 16x + 10
26 – 10 = 16x
16 = 16x
x = 16 / 16
x = 1
Now insert x = 1 in BC=7x + 2
BC = 7 (1) + 2
BC = 9
