Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
You really don't have enough information to solve this with one answer. You want a value for y and there is no what to limit it to just 1 set of values. For example if x = 23 then
x = y + y - 3
x = 2y - 3
23 = 2y - 3 Add three to both sides
23+3 = 2y Combine
26 = 2y Divide by 2
26/2 = 2y/2 Do the division
13 = y
The smaller number is 13 - 3 = 10
Their sum is 13 + 10=23 But that answer is not unique.
====================
Suppose x = 13
13 = 2y - 3 Add 3
13 + 3 = 2y
16 = 2y
y =8
The larger number = 8
The smaller number = 5
=======================
The best I can do is give you the equation which is
x = 2y - 3

Step-by-step explanation: how this helps :)
If a consistent system has an infinite number of solutions, it is dependent . When you graph the equations, both equations represent the same line<span>. If a system has no solution, it is said to be </span>inconsistent<span> . The graphs of the </span>lines<span> do not intersect, so the graphs </span>are parallel<span> and there is no solution.
Sorry, this is a general answer. I could not view the graph below...</span>
