Answer:

Sum: 17 + 11 = 28

Difference: 17 - 11 = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of x and y is 28. In other words, x plus y equals 28 and can be written as equation A:

x + y = 28

The difference between x and y is 6. In other words, x minus y equals 6 and can be written as equation B:

x - y = 6

Now solve equation B for x to get the revised equation B:

x - y = 6

x = 6 + y

Then substitute x in equation A from the revised equation B and then solve for y:

x + y = 28

6 + y + y = 28

6 + 2y = 28

2y = 22

y = 11

Now we know y is 11. Which means that we can substitute y for 11 in equation A and solve for x:

x + y = 28

x + 11 = 28

X = 17

Summary: The sum of two numbers is 28 and their difference is 6. What are the two numbers? Answer: 17 and 11 as proven here:

Sum: 17 + 11 = 28

Difference: 17 - 11 = 6

igomit [66]

Answer:

165 liters of 15% solution

Step-by-step explanation:

15F + 65S = 60(1650)

F + S = 1650

F = 1650-S

15(1650-S) +65S = 99000

50S = 99000-24750= 74250

S = 74250/50 = 7425/5 = 1485 liters of 65% solution

F = 1650-1485 = 165 liters of 15% solution

65 is much closer to 60 than 15 is,  so you know there will be mostly 65% solution with relatively little 15%

Hope this helps, have a nice day/night! :D
