Answer:

-10, -6

6, 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the one number be x.

One number is 3/5 of the other number.

The numbers are x and 3x/5.

Add 4 to one number, the sum equals the other number.

There are two possibilities.

A) x + 4 = 3x/5

B) 3x/5 + 4 = x

Solve A)

5x + 20 = 3x

2x = -20

x = -10

Solve B)

3x + 20 = 5x

2x = 20

x = 10

According to A)

x = -10

3x/5 = -6

According to B)

x = 10

3x/5 = 6

Answer:

-10, -6

6, 10

zheka24 [161]

I think there's supposed to be a picture here. Anyway, you can find out by finding the slope of the line on the graph and comparing it to .5 which is Henry's slope. If the graphed slope is larger than .5 then Clark hikes faster, if it is less than .5, Henry hikes faster.

Hope this helps :)
