Answer:

The first number is 14

The second number is -3

Step-by-step explanation:

x + 2y = 8

2x + y = 25

Solving simultaneously,

2x + 4y = 16

2x + y = 25

On subtracting, we have

3y = -9

y = -3

Going to substitute for y, we have

x + 2(-3) = 8

x - 6 = 8

x = 14

salantis [7]
Do you mean 8 more smaller if so the answer to your question is
X+y=40
Y=8 + x
Substituting the second equation into the first:
X+(8+x)=40
2x+8=40
2x=32
Smaller number: x=16
Y=8+(16)
Large number: y=24
