Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

"The difference of two numbers is 15."

x-y = 15

x>y

"Five times the smaller number is the same as 9 less than twice the larger number."

5y = 2x-9

y = x-15

substitution

5(x-15) = 2x-9

5x-75 = 2x-9

3x = 66

x = 22

y = x-15 = 7

We use 0.05 becuase 5 percent is basically 5/100 and the x is used becuase we don’t know what the number is and the =12 is for the number that came out as a final result

ow we can solve the equation

x=12/0/05

x=240

Final answer is 240
