Answer:

-6 and 7

Step-by-step explanation:

x is one number and y is the other

(1)----------------- 8x+5y=-13

(2)------------------ x+y= 1

first, let multiply both sides of (x+y=-1) by 8

(3)----------------- 8x+8y=8

lets subtract (1) from (3)

(8x+8y)-(8x+5y)=8-(-13)=3y

8-(-13)=3y -> 21=3y

y=7

lets plug in 7 into (2) for x

x+7=1

x=-6

the numbers are -6 and 7

Answer with explanation:

To find the common multiple of 45 and 95,we will find HCF of 45 and 95.

45=3 × 3× 5

95=5 × 19

=3 × 3×5×19

=855

→Common multiple of 45 and 95 =855

→There are infinite number of multiple of 855 which are 855, 1710, 2565,.....

You have not written between which two numbers.So, you should write multiple of 855 such that it is smaller than the greater number.
