37 and 25 are the answers

Answer:

x = 37

y = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the larger number = x

Let the smaller number = y

x + y = 62

<u>x - y = 12   </u>          Add

2x = 74               Divide by 2

x = 74/2

x = 37

x - y = 12

37 -y = 12          Subtract 37 from both sides

-y = 12 - 37

-y = -25            Multiply both sides by - 1

y = 25

alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

268.40

We can write a ratio to solve

2.5 meters        22 meters

-----------------  = --------------

30.5 dollars       x dollars

Using cross products

2.5 * x = 30.5 * 22

2.5x =671

2.5x / 2.5 = 671/2.5

x =268.4
