X+y = 42
x-y = 8
x = 8+y
Substitute it in 1st equation,
8+y+y=42
2y = 34
y = 17
Substitute it in 1st eq.,
x = 42-17 = 25
So, the two numbers are 25 & 17

Answer:
10 SENIORS
Step-by-step explanation:
x=# of seniors
y=# of juniors
x+y=23, x=2y-7
- plug the value of x in the second equation into the first
- (2y-7)+y=23
- Remove parentheses
- 2y-7+y=23
- Combine like terms
- 3y-7=23
- Add 7 to BOTH sides
- 3y=30
- divide BOTH sides by 3
- 3y/3=30/3
- y=10
- There are 10 juniors in the class
- FINAL STEPS
- Plug y (which is 10) into the first equation
- x+y=23
- x+10=23
- subtract 10 from BOTH sides
- x=13
- Since X equals the number of seniors, there are 10 seniors in the class
