Answer:
the sum of two numbers is 27. their difference is 5. find the number
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the first number and y be the second number ... so we have
x + y = 27
x - y = 5 Adding the equations, we have
2x = 32 Dividing through by 2, we have
x = 16 And substituting or x in the first equation, we have
16 + y = 27 Subtract 16 from both sides
y = 11
Let's have two numbers x (larger) and y (smaller). from the info above...
x + y = 3
5x + 4y = 29
so that means y=3 - x. we can sub this in
5x + 4(3-x) = 29
5x + 12 - 4x = 29
x = 17
then y=3-x=3-17=-14
so it's 17 and -14
answer is 250 which is D Because 250 of 24%=60, so subtract 60 from 250 it will give you 190
